Job Assistance Center Inc.

Job Assistance Center Inc., a woman-owned small business based in Virginia, operates exclusively as a sub-recipient on federal employment-advancement grants, with no prime contract or grant awards in recent years. The company is a for-profit Subchapter S corporation structured as a woman-owned business entity, competing in the employment services and workforce development space.

All four of Job Assistance Center Inc.'s federal awards in the past twenty months flow through the Department of Health and Human Services Administration for Children and Families via the Virginia Department of Social Services as the prime grantee. The vendor received three employment-advancement grant sub-awards in 2023 (March, July, and July) totaling activity within that fiscal year, followed by one sub-award in October 2024. Combined dollars obligated across all four sub-awards total $943 thousand, reflecting modest but continuous engagement in state-administered federal workforce development programming.

The vendor's footprint centers narrowly on employment advancement services delivered to Virginia through HHS ACF programming. The concentration of all awards through a single prime grantee and single federal customer agency indicates tight operational coupling with Virginia Department of Social Services grant administration rather than diversified federal market reach. With only one award in the past twelve months and a three-award cluster in 2023, activity appears flat to declining. The vendor holds no seats on government-wide vehicles, GWACs, BPAs, or GSA Schedules; all work routes through Virginia state administration of federal grants. Job Assistance Center Inc. operates in a sub-recipient posture exclusively, positioning the vendor as a service delivery arm for state workforce programs rather than as an independent federal contractor or grant prime.
