Anyone who plans to attend is asked to fill out the Job Seeker Registration Form ahead of the fair to share their background, experience and how Crow’s congressional office can help them with a job search, according to the press release.

Crow has hosted the job fair annually since 2019, according to the release, and his 2024 job fair helped connect more than 500 Coloradans with employers.

Crow grew up in the middle class and worked in the construction industry to put himself through college, he said in a press release following his 2024 job fair, at which 60 employers tabled to meet with job seekers.

“I know the value and dignity that comes with a job,” he said in the release. “I look forward to continuing to build a bridge between Colorado’s employers and job seekers.”

Event registration is free and more information is available on Congressman Crow’s website.
