A job fair for the Mayor’s Summer Youth Employment Program will be held from 8 a.m. to 3 p.m. on Saturday, April 21 at the Evanston Civic Center.
The program is for Evanston youth age 14-18 years. In order to be eligible to attend the job fair, youth must be enrolled in school and be at least 14 years of age when the Youth Employment Program begins on June 4.
