What is the Subsidized Employment Program?
Sacramento County residents who are unemployed and have a lack of experience are brought into the Subsidized Employment Program to introduce them in the workforce. This program then provides reimbursement of wages for employers up to six months to encourage recruiting from the program. The mission of the Department of Human Assistance is to make each candidate of the program self-sufficient and successful in the workforce of California and as a result they lead a happier and more fulfilling life for themselves and their families.
