The job fair is part of a national movement, facilitated through the nonprofit organization Better Together, of churches offering unique job fair experiences which are focused on making the job searching experience more relational and empowering.

The fair will feature local businesses hiring now, community resources sharing about services, and volunteers from the church and community offering one-on-one job coaching and moral support. New Springs will open its doors from 11am-2pm on May 17th and welcome anyone from the community to come find work. Some of the employers present will be open to hiring neighbors with a prior conviction or who otherwise face barriers to employment. The industries represented will also be diverse.

Several of the confirmed employer partners include: Pollo Tropical and Broward Sheriff’s Office. In addition, job seekers attending will have access to resources and services to help them find work and meet needs their family may have beyond employment. Some of the resource partners attending and contributing to the event include: RYVAN Recruiting.
