The Return to Earn grant program will match bonuses made by eligible small businesses up to $500 for new hires.
Unemployed Virginians are facing a variety of childcare, transportation, and other barriers to returning to the workforce while some small businesses are struggling to find workers. To support Virginians in their transition back to employment, Governor Ralph Northam will invest $3 million to pilot the Return to Earn Grant Program.
The initiative will match up to $500 that a qualifying small business pays directly to a new employee hired on or after May 31, 2021 to support their transition back to employment.
To learn more and to apply, visit the Arlington/Alexandria Regional Workforce Council website.

As one of the most highly used Metrorail stations in Arlington, the new entrance to the Crystal City station will help accommodate the anticipated increase in trips to National Landing as development in the area continues. This new second entrance will provide more direct access than the existing entrance to offices, shops, and residences along Crystal Drive. The entrance also will offer a more direct connection to the Virginia Railway Express (VRE) and Metroway bus rapid transit network.
