U.S. Rep. Jason Crow, D-Aurora, will host a job fair Friday in Aurora for Coloradans looking for work, with more than 30 employers from across the metro area tabling to meet with job seekers.

The fair, which takes place from noon to 5 p.m. at Arapahoe/Douglas Works Workforce Center, 14980 E. Alameda Drive in Aurora, will have 35 local employers from across the metro Denver area in a wide variety of fields, the press release from Crow’s office said.

Veterans and spouses of servicemembers get early access to the event starting at 11:30 a.m. The event opens at noon for all other job seekers.

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. 

Employers at the fair include Buckley Space Force Base, the U.S. Navy, Thrivent, Littleton Public Schools, Arapahoe County Human Services, Target, STRIDE Community Health Center, Troops into Transportation, Arapahoe/Douglas Works! and Rocky Mountain Human Services.

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.
