Employment & Training

The Senior Community Service Employment Program (SCSEP) is for low-income adults age 55 and older who have difficulty finding a job or need to work part-time to make ends meet. Enrollment is based on income and personal situation. Enrollees are placed in government or not-for-profit agencies to gain skills to help them find a permanent job. The program is paid for by the funding from the Department of Labor and overseen by NY State Office for the Aging and Senior Services America. The usual work week is 20 hours and it pays minimum wage.

For more information on the SCSEP Program call the local NY Connects Helpline at 716-753-4582.
