As pandemic unemployment benefits start coming to an end, and life continues to be uncertain for so many in our community, we have heard from hundreds of you who are trying to make ends meet amid unemployment.

And while we have worked hard to tell your stories, we wanted to do more for our community than just highlight the problem.

That is why we partnered with Cincinnati Works to bring you Final Fridays with Cincinnati Works, a job fair to help you get back to work.

Cincinnati Works'mission is to eliminate poverty in Cincinnati by assisting people through advancing economic self-sufficiency through employment.

Companies interviewing with potential employees this month are:

  • Springdale packaging firm ProAmpac.
  • Cleaning services company ABM (which cleans Amazon's local warehouses).
  • Cincy Gutter Boys, which installs, repairs, and cleans gutters.

  • Two employers you are interested in

Sign-ups will close on Wednesday, July 28, at 11:59 p.m., so make sure to get your email in by then.
