Marion County Black Republican Club, Federated

 

 

 Community Outreach Projects

 

 

In view of the every rising need for jobs, we will establish a protocol that builds unity between the Republican Party and the African American community to link prospective employees with jobs.

 

  1. We will build a relationship with businesses within the county to promote the availability of jobs.

 

  1. We will host annual or semi-annual Job Fairs within the community, thereby giving prospective employees an avenue of accessibility to employers, gain helpful information on how to become employable; submit job applications, and become gainfully employed.

 

  1. We will establish a data bank to record the information of those who take advantage of this service and track their employment for six months to develop a science base analysis to determine what works in keeping Americans employed.

 

  1. We will establish a job training mechanism that trains prospective employees on how to fill out job applications, how to write resumes, and how to dress for an interview.

 

  1. We will establish the name of this job fair community outreach as, Job-Fairs, Employment-Training, i.e. JET.

Abstinence Workshops

 

With the growing number of youth arrested in Marion County for sexual activity at school or on the school property, we will address the issue with a six -week workshop held in conjunction with the Marion County Health Department.  The workshop is designed for youth aged 9-17 years of age and does not promote the use of birth control pills or use of condoms.

 

 

  1.  We will establish two sites in low-income areas to host the Abstinence Workshop for school aged youth 9-17.
