 Fremont  Local Office Report

Crop Activity for February 3, 2010

The agriculture season is done here in Newaygo County. At this time I am trying to work with our settled out Migrant and Seasonal Farm workers. Very few non agriculture employers I contacted for January were hiring at this time most of them are asking me to call them back towards middle of February they are slowly starting to pick up. I am still trying to encourage the settled out Migrant and Seasonal Farm workers that are on unemployment and/or on some kind of assistance to take advantage of the training opportunities offered through the Foundation for Behavioral Resources. FBR has orientation every Wednesday from 2:00 p.m. - 3:00 p.m. Applicants may call to make an appointment at the Fremont MI Works office by calling 231-924-3230. Applicants must be at the office by 1:45 p.m. to make sure they are registered then go through the orientation. Barrier we are running into are still with the non English speakers and those that do not have a GED or HS Diploma. At this time do not have any licensed housing available.

Outstation office hours in Grant are Monday - Thurs. Between 10:00 a.m. - 3:30 p.m. 231-834-0299. Fridays in Fremont 8:00 a.m. - 5:00 p.m. 231-924-3230 Ext: 7930
