Those unemployed, have recently lost a job, or feel underemployed can take advantage of the WeLIFT Job Search Center, a non-profit organization in Indianola that helps people look and apply for jobs, and make sure they have adequate training and education to move forward. Executive Director Roger Netsch tells KNIA News one of the biggest demographics the organization helps out is those who may be unfamiliar with technology.

“We have a computer lab that clients can use, and we also teach computer classes there for people on online job searching, email basics, searching for jobs online, Microsoft Word and Excel, you can learn all of that here. And all of our services are free, we are a 501(c)(3) non-profit organization.”

Netsch also said someone’s education level doesn’t matter, they help those without a high school diploma as well as those with a college degree who may want to change careers.
