(See attached M.E.E.D. Act Summary.) We expect that funds will be available to create 500 temporary jobs (6 months/full-time, or 12 months/part-time) over the next fourteen months. We need your help to develop these jobs. The program is scheduled to begin to refer applicants for interviews in the first weeks of August. This is your opportunity to staff various new projects that may have been cancelled or delayed because of recent budget cuts. It is also an opportunity to add new functions to existing pro- grams or projects within those public sectors that are now expe- riencing growth. CAUTION: M.E.E.D. funds are not intended to be used to fill existing positions that happen to be vacant at the present time. If you have jobs in mind that can be filled by a M.E.E.D. appli- cant, fill out the enclosed preliminary position description, and return it to the Job Training Center, to the attention of Jan Magree. If you have questions about how you can use the program in con- junction with other programs or future expansion plans, call Jan Magree, 571 - 8500, to discuss the possibilities. JV:dh Enc.
