GARY | U.S. Rep. Pete Visclosky, D-Ind., will host a Veterans' Opportunities Fair from 11 a.m. to 2 p.m. Saturday at the Savannah Center Gym at Indiana University Northwest, 3400 Broadway.
The fair will bring together employers, health care organizations, housing assistance providers, and financial services providers, with the goal of providing military veterans information on the support available to them from federal agencies and veterans services organizations and to alert them to local job opportunities.
Job seekers will have access to employers and labor groups throughout Northwest Indiana, as well as two 30-minute workshops at noon and 1 p.m., "Demilitarizing Your Resume," guided by veteran representatives from WorkOne.
Housing assistance and financial service providers will also be available to answer any questions. Local institutes of higher learning will be on hand, according to a news release.
Veterans with health care or benefits questions may attend presentations from the Veterans Health Administration and the Veterans Benefits Administration beginning at 11 a.m. This event is open to the public and registration is not required.
