The Santa Cruz Public Libraries (SCPL), in partnership with the
Homeless Garden Project and the Santa Cruz County Workforce
Collaborative, is excited to announce the Job and Services Resource
Fair.

Preventions Programs, CalWorks, Grey Bears, Cabrillo College, Goodwill
Central Coast Career Center, Encompass, Santa Cruz County Veterans
Services, Your Future is Our Business, and the National Farmworkers
