DOES

On Friday, July 4, 2025, the DC Department of Employment Services (DOES) and the American Job Center locations will be closed in observance of Independence Day. Please be advised, if you receive unemployment insurance benefits, payments may be delayed due to the DOES and American Job Center locations closure. We will be available to assist you in-person or by telephone on all other weekdays. Thank you.

 

DOES Outreach Strategic Plan

The Community Outreach & Resource Engagement (CORE) Team Strategic Plan will provide clear direction for the agency’s efforts to engage, empower and employ those who have been historically underrepresented in the decision-making process and most impacted by underemployment and unemployment in the District. We are dedicated to the plan's success and making measurable progress toward our goals and priorities
