When financial resources are tight, it is important to be as efficient as possible with your income. Residents attending the Social Development Commission’s (SDC) Spring Job and Resource Fair will be offered information on how to accomplish just that.
The 7th Annual SDC Spring Job and Resource Fair will be held Saturday, May 18 from 10 am to 3 pm at Greater New Birth Church at 82nd and Silver Spring. The day will provide many programs and resources that can help local residents become self-sufficient.
Among the resources provided at the fair will be Financial Education Workshops conducted by Greenpath. These sessions will be custom tailored to meet the needs of attending residents and can include budgeting, credit repair, foreclosure prevention and debt management. Greenpath will also provide free credit score checks for participants.
The Job and Resource Fair will feature employers seeking to hire workers, job training programs, and afternoon workshops on how the Affordable Healthcare Act will impact residents. Attendees will be able to access to Child Support Debt Reduction and Driver’s License Recovery case workers. And resources will be provided at the Fair in the areas of Education, Housing, and Public Safety in addition to free health screenings.
