Resource and Information computers, printer and fax will be available for use on a drop in basis – please, no food or drink are permitted.  As per usual policies, all appointments with Employment Advisors are to be scheduled in advance, whether in-person or by phone.  Virtual services will remain in place to accommodate those uncomfortable or unable to join us in person.
