The statewide network of Families Helping Families Center has partnered with Healthy Blue as a sponsor for a virtual job fair that is specifically for individuals with disabilities. This virtual event will be held on November 3, 2021, from 10 am to 2 pm.
The goal is to connect businesses looking for entry-level staff to individuals seeking employment.
