Applications for the Return to Earn Grant Program are currently being accepted.

Eligible small businesses can apply to be reimbursed a portion of incentives (up to $500) paid directly to new hires in support of their transition back into the workforce. The Return to Earn Program serves businesses with fewer than 100 employees, and is intended to help small companies offset the burden of employer-paid hiring bonuses.
