A4TD Selected to Operate National SCSEP Grant in New Hampshire

Transition brings continued employment and training services to older adults statewide

 

(St. Albans, VT – March 3, 2026) Associates for Training and Development (A4TD) has been selected to operate the U.S. Department of Labor-funded Senior Community Service Employment Program (SCSEP) national grant in New Hampshire, strengthening its commitment to older workers across the region.

 

A4TD currently operates SCSEP programs across Maine, New York, Pennsylvania, Vermont, and Connecticut. The addition of New Hampshire strengthens A4TD’s presence in Northern New England and builds on its long-standing work connecting older adults with meaningful employment opportunities.

 

This transition reflects A4TD’s long-standing approach to workforce development, ensuring participants and host agencies experience continuity of services while strengthening program delivery over time.

 

“For decades, A4TD has worked alongside older adults who are ready to contribute, support their communities, and remain active in the workforce,” said Alex Fizz, Chief Executive Officer of A4TD. “Expanding into New Hampshire is a natural extension of that work. We approach this responsibility with a clear understanding of what matters—consistency, respect for participants, and strong partnerships at the local level. Our focus is not simply on maintaining services, but on strengthening them in a way that reflects the value and capability of older workers.”

 

A4TD will work closely with community partners across New Hampshire to ensure a smooth transition and continued access to training and employment opportunities for eligible individuals.
