Description
Employers and Resource Providers under one roof!
Join us for a community resource and employment event bringing together local service providers and employers in one convenient location. Community-based organizations will be on-site to share information about healthcare, housing, and other essential resources. At the same time, local employers will be available to introduce their organizations and discuss current job opportunities. This is an excellent chance to connect, ask questions, and explore both support services and career pathways.
SEE BELOW THE LIST OF EMPLOYERS AND RESOURCE PROVIDERS ATTENDING THE EVENT. THIS LIST IS UPDATED WEEKLY.
Come with an updated resume, ready to meet with employers!
