Curious what finally induced her to leave?
If she is traumatized she will need help for that.

Uber, Ubereats. Also all these at home meal kit delivery services need delivery people.
I agree with associates degree and then vocational or even white collar training—nursing, accountancy/tax preparation are really good options.

OP how much childcare will she have access to in the near future? That would be a large obstacle

Lots of from home customer support jobs. She is 53 though, her kids must be old enough to be in school?

She did some sort of volunteer work as she was raising her kids, yes? Start there -- reach out to the schools to see if they need substitutes, office staff, admin folks, bus drivers. Check in with the library about hourly shelving jobs. Approach sports clubs to see if they need admin staff.
Also look into childcare, home health aid, retail at a place where the discount would be useful.
She must have some skills. Get her to think outside the box.
Great ideas.
she got married young and the youngest has special needs

Montgomery College has a whole division for reentering the work force. She might get some help in terms of cost.

In home daycare
Nannying
Meal prep service
Laundry service (there's apps you can do other peoples laundry at your house)
Housekeeping/household manager pays $30-40hr
People in this area are career driven and outsource everything around the home- she can capitalize on that

She is in Maryland. Housing is a bit messy right now given the situation. But may be something for the future.

Remote will be difficult if not impossible to get.
Look into warehouse, retail, restaurants, home health aid, dental assisting or CNA.
Longer-term, look into having her get an associates degree in nursing, dental hygiene or physical therapy assistant.

Best is to work retail or food service. No skills needed, and often you can choose shift work so it could be odd hours to be flexible with kid schedules.

My cousin just separated from her very abusive husband. She has no job skills. None. She was a homemaker for the past 20 years. Any ideas on where she can get some low cost vocational training---remote jobs would be best because she does have children. thanks.
