Agency Overview
Formed in 1978, Sacramento Employment and Training Agency (SETA) is a joint powers agency of the City and County of Sacramento to provide employment, training, and support services to the community.
SETA's Refugee Program, funded by the Office of Refugee Settlement (ORR), offers Employment Services to refugees, asylees, federally certified victims of human trafficking, and Special Immigrant Visa holders (SIVs) that reside in Sacramento County.
