The Community Action Partners meeting on May 21 centered on the success of the Continuing the Climb: Re-Entry Job and Resource Fair.
The fair, which was held April 29 at Resource Connection, 2300 Circle Drive, included key organizations such as Legal Aid of NorthWest Texas and Clear Path Texas Statewide Expunction Clinic. Court in the Community’s Warrant Forgiveness event was available for four hours and cleared 262 warrants.
Suzanne Richards, Fort Worth’s EnVision Center coordinator, also reported that 32 employers and 31 resource agencies were available. Between them, 417 interviews were either scheduled or conducted, and 36 people were hired on the spot.
“The focus of the Continuing the Climb: Re-Entry Job Fair is to improve the economic outlook of individuals with challenged backgrounds by bringing resources, employment and support to one location,” Richards said.
