Last week, Congressman Dingell released the Second Edition of his Displaced Workers Guidebook, which is freely available on his website at http://www.house.gov/dingell/pdf/displacedworkerguidebook.pdf. The success and demand for the original Guidebook, along with new assistance programs initiated by both the government and local organizations, led the Congressman to compile this updated version.

The Second Edition now includes over sixteen additional pages of resources and government aid programs identified specifically for the constituents of the 15th Congressional District and the people of Southeast Michigan. It also features a comprehensive table of contents and a full index – sorted by organization and by type of aid – to make browsing for the kind of help most relevant to each person that much easier.

Please feel free to post the Guidebook online or distribute it to the communities and populations you serve. The last edition of this book was viewed nearly half a million times, and it is Congressman Dingell’s goal that with your help this updated version will be able to reach as many families and individuals who may yet benefit from some new directions in seeking further aid as possible. Printed copies of the Guidebook are available for free at any of the Congressman’s district offices in Dearborn, Monroe, and Ypsilanti.
