Grants still available for displaced Chrysler workers - - BusinessRockford.com

Something is wrong here.  Are the RVC employees/Dislocated Worker Program employees not doing their jobs?  If you are against unions—are  auto workers too lazy to retrain?  Our local government officials (either after or because of April 7) need to do some phone calling to insure that none of these precious dollars are wasted.  This is jeopardizing any further retraining money.

“…the money has a time limit, and it’s about to run out”.

“After Chrysler announced its cuts, the local Dislocated Worker Program received $780,000 in federal grants to retrain the affected workers. About 250 workers have taken advantage of the program so far, but there’s still $230,000 left to be spent. The grants expire June 30”.
