• They are self employed but is unemployed due to economic conditions or natural
disaster.
• They are a displaced homemaker. A displaced homemaker is generally a person who previously provided unpaid services to the family (e.g. a stay at home mom or dad) and is no longer supported by the husband or wife , and is having trouble finding or upgrading employment.
If a person quitswork, generally they are not considered a displaced worker even if, for instance, they are receiving unemployment benefits.
Note that the financial aid administrator at your school may require you to provide proof that you (or your spouse) is a dislocated worker.
