A help wanted sign is displayed in a Bourbonnais business window in Sept. 2021. In April 2025, Kankakee County's unemployment rate dropped to 4.2% below the state's 4.5% average, a good sign of progress according to the Economic Alliance of Kankakee County.

The Sterling Public Library will host a job-search workshop from 2 to 3:30 p.m. Tuesday, Dec. 9, at the library.

Leslie Neal of the Tri-County Opportunities Council will be the guest speaker, providing information about the services offered by TCOC.

Representatives from Business Employment Skills Team Inc., the Illinois Department of Employment Security and IDES Veterans Services will be on hand to share information and resources for area job-seekers.

The workshop, free and open to the public, is sponsored by BEST Inc. and IDES.
