The Central Library saw a crowd of over 800 young adults for Congressman André Carson's fifth annual Youth Opportunities Fair, with the goal of connecting students and parents with a variety of summer options before the end of the school year. More than 75 organizations around Indy participated to offer opportunities for jobs, volunteer work, and learning sessions for resume development, interviewing, and more. Congressman Carson partnered with Indianapolis Libraries, EmployIndy, JAG, Public Allies, and Mayor Hogsett's office on the event. Check out the pics below!
