• Federal Bonding Program
  The Federal Bonding Program, sponsored by the U.S. Department of Labor, serves as a tool to secure the job placement of ex-offenders and other high-risk applicants by issuing Fidelity bonds to businesses who offer jobs to workers in "at risk" groups. These bonds are business insurance policies that protect the employer in case of any loss of money or property due to employee dishonesty.

• Work Opportunity Tax Credit Program
  The Work Opportunity Tax Credit (WOTC) program encourages employers to hire targeted groups of job seekers by offering them a federal income tax credit. The WOTC can reduce an employer’s federal tax liability by up to $2,400 per new hire.
