Second Chance Jefferson County Hiring Fair (Job Seekers)
Jefferson County District Attorney’s Office in collaboration with several local nonprofit organizations, businesses and government agencies will hold a job fair specifically for formerly incarcerated and justice involved individuals. The DA’s office recognizes there is significant correlation between crime and poverty; which is exacerbated with the prohibitive effect criminal histories have when attempting to secure employment. Therefore, connecting this target population with felony friendly prospective employers is an effort to begin meaningful community outreach for our often forgotten citizens.
We invite employers to help us combat this problem in our community by registering and attending the Second Chance Hiring Fair on October 8, 2024 at the Boutwell Auditorium. Come prepared to provide second chances in the form of employment to those who have paid their debt to society and are seeking to become a successful and productive citizen.
There is no such thing as a throwaway person and by granting second chances (employment) to those who have paid their debt to society; we will be contributing to the restoration of families and our communities.
“It is only right for people with criminal histories to have fair opportunity to secure jobs to reach their full potential to become self-sufficient, productive citizens.”
Registration instructions:
All tickets are free. Need to be able to provide a job or jobs to a qualified person or people that have a felony(ies) or misdemeanor(s) or both.
