INDIANAPOLIS —Congressman Andre Carson will hold his annual Indianapolis Job and Resource Fair on Tuesday on the campus of Ivy Tech Community College – Indianapolis.

Through this annual job fair, we live out our mission by helping individuals to find and stay on a path to training and education and ultimately to in-demand employment. This year, we are excited to welcome 70 employers to campus, with over 50% offering tuition assistance and employment.”
