US District Court to Host Community Resource Fair


Times are tough for many people particularly those who are and have been unemployed.  With winter and holiday seasons quickly approaching, social service providers recognize a growing need for services, assistance and other resources.  Many people are unaware of the vast array of resources available throughout the region.  In an effort to provide information and contacts to those in need, The United States District Court of Western Pennsylvania is hosting a Community Resource Fair on October 24th from 1:00-2:30 PM.

The event will be held at the Federal Courthouse at 700 Grant Street, Pittsburgh, PA 15219 in Suite 3330.  Workshops will offer an opportunity for individuals to learn about and ask questions about Housing, Utility Assistance, Basic Needs, Education and more.  Representatives from over 30 agencies such as Dress for Success, PA Office and Vocational Rehabilitation, UPMC and Bidwell Training Center will be on hand.

The Community Resource Fair is open to the public, but attendees must register in advance.  To register for the event, call 412-395-6907 ext. 5027.
