MONROE, La. (KNOE) - The Swanson Center for Youth in Monroe hosted a Career Fair Saturday morning.

Public Information Director Nicolette Gordon with the Office of Juvenile Justice says it’s about changing the life of a child.
“We’re just trying to get into the minds. We’re looking for people who are career minded. You know - who wants to come in and actually want to change the lives of children. You know it’s one thing to come in and be a JJS, but it’s one thing to be here and be a JJS and see that child walk out of the door and do something productive with their life,” says Gordon.
Gordon told KNOE the hiring process is on a continual basis. Interested candidates can learn about the center’s job openings at ojj.la.gov. The next career fair is scheduled for July 9 and July 23, 2022.
