Julie Griffin, 23, from Blackpool said finding work had been challenging.
She said: “When I was not working, I would just stay at home in bed and then I’d get really anxious and frightened to the point I wouldn’t go out.”
After being supported by Jobcentre staff she is now working, and is urging others in a similar position to get help.
“It’s all worth it in the end,” she said.
Under the Connect to Work programme in the county, 11,000 participants will be supported across Lancashire County Council, Blackburn with Darwen and Blackpool council areas.
The government said changes to job centres would mean staff had more time to support people because they would be using better technology.
McGovern added: “Changing job centres and providing funding for towns and cities will make sure everyone is included in our economic plan.”
She also said she wanted job centres to work with businesses in the county to provide good jobs.
She said: “I want the likes of BAE and others to be recruiting through the DWP and helping people who might be perhaps overlooked to really get a job and get a start.
“I know that will set Lancashire well up for the future and its economic growth.”
