If you were at the last two job fairs, you already know what an amazing event this has become, connecting diverse youth with exciting job prospects. Hundreds of youth have attended these events.
If you weren't able to attend before, prepare to be inspired!
The fair is youth-led, so adult roles are limited; the goal is for youth tablers to represent the hiring organizations. The fair serves youth, primarily of color. Interested in tabling for this event, please contact the Youth Mentoring Collaborative at youthmentoringpdx@gmail.com.

This group meets bimonthly to share best practices and build capacity, with the focus of better serving the youth involved in our programs so they will be prepared to be future leaders in the environmental movement.
