Career Futures to close after 38 years over state plan
A Montana nonprofit that runs job and training programs for low income residents says it will shut after 38 years due to the state moving to a single, corporate provider, Maximus. Nine full time and one part time staff will lose jobs as dozens of clients shift to Maximus, with executives citing incompatibility of sub contracting and operations.
