SPRINGFIELD, Mo. — The Missouri Job Center will officially open its new location tomorrow.
According to a press release from the job center, the new center, located at 1660 N. Campbell Ave., will start serving clients on Tuesday, Oct. 15. The former location (2900 E. Sunshine St.) is now closed to the public.
Parking lot upgrades at the new location are ongoing, so visitors are asked to park on the east side of the building along Boonville Avenue until work is complete.
