laid off

The correct term is "laid off."
The same as for any other citizen. If he has worked and is now laid off, he is likely eligible for unemployment benefits. If he is disabled, he has a right to apply for and wait for benefits like everyone else. If he is employed, he has a right to whatever benefits package that employer offers same as all of the employees.He is not entitled to any benefits, state or federal, simply because he is being released from incarceration.
Most states use a base year of eligibility as the first 4 of the last 5 complete calendar quarters before you apply for benefits.
