Help for federal workers & contractors

Post Published: October 3, 2025

If you are a federal employee or contractor and are facing layoffs, experiencing work-related stress or find yourself in a career transition, the library is here to help.

A modern office setting with multiple employees working at their desks. In the foreground, a person with dark, curly hair tied back sits in a black mesh office chair, facing a computer screen with their hands resting on the back of their head.

Join our free programs and workshops designed to help job seekers, ease stress and foster a supportive community with others in similar situations.

Online resource guide

A rectangular graphic featuring the purple Brainfuse JobNow logo on a white background. A stylized figure carrying a briefcase appears in a circle to the left, stepping up bars that represent career growth. To the right, the text reads ‘brainfuse JobNow’ with the tagline ‘free career assistance and so much more.’ Behind it is a blurred office setting with chairs and a conference table.

For those impacted by federal workforce actions, our librarians have assembled an online guide to services and programs that features career development resources, library and Arlington County programs and mental health support.

Check back for updates as we continue to add to these offerings.
