The community job fair is part of Better Together's "Better Jobs" program, which has helped 39,000 applicants connect with employment opportunities across 22 states. At job fairs hosted by Better Together, two-thirds of attendees get a job interview, and 1 in 4 receive a job offer on the spot. Some 70% find work within six weeks.

"The community is coming together to create opportunities and restore hope for those in need of employment," said Megan Rose, CEO of Better Together. "This is not your typical job fair. Job seekers can come as they are, no suits required, and encouraging volunteers will support you every step of the way. We know how difficult this process can be, and we are here to help wherever it is needed."

The job fair will take place at Cedar Bay Baptist Church, located at 11553 N. Main St. in Jacksonville. Job seekers and employers can register at BetterTogetherus.org/events/jax-jf-cbb/ or by texting "JOBS" to 844-987-3949.
