Federal government awards almost $500,000 to Coastline Elderly for employment program

NEW BEDFORD - For unemployed workers 55 and up, it can be tough to find an employer willing to invest in maturity. But nearly 90 percent of a $479,141 grant that Coastline Elderly Services received this month will go to participants in the Senior Community Service Employment Program, an initiative funded by the U.S. Department of Labor that aims to help unemployed, low-income adults rejoin the workforce.
