Re-Entry Fair - Oct 7th

Asian Resources Inc. (ARI) has always been one of the first agencies to recognize the current needs of the community. In 2005, the Broadway Career Center hosted by Asian Resources, Inc. under the direction of the Site Supervisor, Mary Garza, organized the initial Broadway Career Center Ex-Offender Job Fair targeting the recently released population from incarceration.  The event drew several hundred job seekers from all over Northern California.

Last year with over 200 participants attending and over 21 direct hires, the numbers speaks for the success of this event. Our goal is to have the Job Fair annually and keep enlarging the pool of employers available for the at risk population. Future suggestions include resume preparation and interviewing skills prior to the Job Fair.
