Layoff with no termination date?

So I’ve been working at my job for about 9 months now. I was told yesterday I was getting laid off because my position will be obsolete. My employers said they’d give me letters of recommendation, as well as a letter for unemployment. They also gave me a months heads up. The issue is, they didn’t give me a set date that’d I’d be out of a job. I’m grateful they gave me a heads up so I can get my shit together, but the no date thing is throwing me off? Can they do that? Should I quit? I’ve never been fired/laid off before, and I don’t know how this works. I’m in the US if that helps. I apologize if this isn’t the place to ask, if not please let me know. I’m not sure who else to ask.
