SIP

Senior Internship Program

The Senior Internship Program is a work-training program authorized under Title V of the Older Americans Act. It is funded by the U.S. Department of Labor and in Iowa it is administered by the Department of Elder Affairs. SIP helps low-income job seekers age 55 and older gain the skills and paid work experience necessary to transition into permanent, unsubsidized jobs.

The SIP Program continues to help nonprofit organizations and private employees help maintain and deliver key services. The skills they learn under this program will help them to transition successfully into the workforce.
