2ND CHANCE JOB FAIR
Day 41 is planning to hold our 2nd Chance Job & Resource Fair along with an array of local businesses and resource providers from the Houston area in an effort to reduce recidivism rates and offer redemption for those bound by past mistakes.
We are seeking to partner with ‘background-friendly’ employers who understand that a person’s past doesn’t determine their future.
During our 2nd Chance Job & Resource Fair, participants will be able to complete online applications, update resumes, and work with volunteers to set up or enhance their online professional presence. Additionally, scholarships, job training opportunities, and mock interview sessions will be available to attendees.
LETS PARTNER!
Day 41 Resource Center is working to reduce recidivism throughout Harris, Fort Bend, and Waller through education, employment placement, and entrepreneurship. We can only do this with your support. Will you join our efforts to provide life-saving resources that will break the cycle of incarceration, poverty, and addiction for Houston retuning citizens?
