Fresh Starts Begin Here.
At Baga’s House, we believe that every person deserves a clean slate, a second chance, and a shot at something real. That’s why we’re starting where it matters most: jobs, dignity, and opportunity.
The Fresh Start Job Fair
This isn’t your average job fair. It’s the first step in a larger movement—a community-wide reset designed to reconnect people to work, purpose, and possibility.
Hosted in partnership with local organizations, the Fresh Start Job Fair brings together:
- Local employers who are hiring now
- Workforce development agencies and career coaches
- Training programs and apprenticeship pathways
- Second-chance employers who believe in redemption
It’s one day—but it can change the course of a life.
This Is Just the Beginning.
The Fresh Start Job Fair is our launchpad—but the future of Baga’s House holds so much more. Based on community needs, feedback, and project planning already underway, we’re laying the groundwork for hands-on, project-based training programs that serve people of all ages and backgrounds.
