The event will be on Wednesday, May 6 from 11am-2pm at the Cambridge Innovation Center in Providence. The Rhode Island LGBTQIA+ Job fair has three goals:
1). Connect the LGBTQIA+ community with employers that have a demonstrated commitment to equitable and inclusive workplace policies.
2). Showcase Rhode Island (and the employers within) as a state that values LGBTQIA+ employees.
3). Collect demographic information specific to the LGBTQIA+ community to inform future job fairs and identify opportunities to reduce barriers to employment.In addition to employer booths, the job fair will feature workshops around employer-based healthcare, workplace legal protections, and record expungement, the opportunity for free professional head shots, and community resources related to housing, healthcare and legal services.
