Los Angeles County Supervisor Kathryn Barger is highlighting a key resource designed to help residents recover from the economic impacts of the January 2025 wildfires.
“Fire Recovery Thursdays” are weekly recruitment pop-up events held every Thursday from 1:00 pm to 4:00 pm at America’s Job Centers of California (AJCC) locations across Los Angeles County. Organized by the Los Angeles County Department of Economic Opportunity, the events connect workers and job seekers affected by the fires with immediate employment opportunities, career training programs, and supportive services.
The events take place at all 18 AJCC locations countywide. In Altadena, the local AJCC is located at 464 West Woodbury Road, Suite 210.
Barger said many survivors continue to face significant hardships after the fires.
“Eaton Fire survivors are facing challenges that most of us can hardly imagine,” Barger said. “They’ve lost homes, livelihoods, and a sense of stability all while navigating one of the most difficult economic climates in recent memory. These Fire Recovery Thursday pop-ups can be a lifeline. I encourage anyone who was impacted by the Los Angeles Wildfires to come out and let our teams help connect you with opportunities.”
At each event, AJCC staff offer one-on-one support to help job seekers explore career paths and access hiring and training services. This includes eligibility screening and enrollment assistance for the Fire Recovery & Resilience Workforce Program.
Eligible participants may qualify for temporary job placements lasting three to five months with pay starting at $20 per hour. The program also offers no-cost training in high-demand industries and a variety of supportive services.
Attendees are asked to bring a valid photo ID, such as a U.S. driver’s license, government-issued identification card, or passport, along with documents verifying work authorization, including a Social Security card, U.S. birth certificate, permanent resident card (Form I-551), or employment authorization document (Form I-700). A resume is helpful but not required.
Job seekers are also encouraged to create a profile on the CalJOBS website before attending.
