Does anyone know of any programs in the Washington D.C area that may assist the unemployed with resources?

I have a friend who was layed off of her job of 25 years, she is now 47 years old. She hasn't been working now for two years. She has applied to many jobs but she is having a hard time finding a job. It is starting to effect her pyschologically, and I dont know how to help. She needs resources. I would love, if you all could give me some websites or phone number relevant to helping people in need of a boost in life. She lives in Washington DC.

Does anyone know of any programs in the Washington D.C area that may assist the unemployed with resources?
Have her go to one of these offices to ask for assistance. There may be programs that can help retrain her for another job (called the Workforce Investment Act).
