The Union County Board of County Commissioners would like to announce the 2023 Cannabis Job Fair on Wednesday, October 11, 2023 at Union College of Union County in Elizabeth. This job fair is a collaboration with the Union County Board of County Commissioners, the Elizabeth Development Company, and Union College of Union County.
“The cannabis industry is growing at a rapid rate here in New Jersey,” said Commissioner Chairman Sergio Granados, who also serves as Liaison to the Workforce Development Board. “Right now, there are over 30 dispensaries in New Jersey, which allows easy access for medical marijuana for patients who can benefit from its therapeutic properties, as well as adult-use cannabis. Two of those dispensaries are right here in Union County. There are many employment opportunities residents might not know about, so this fair is a vital way to spread knowledge to our citizens of Union County.”
The Cannabis Job Fair will be begin at 10:00 a.m. in the Union College of Union County Kellogg Building, Room 519, located at 40 West Grand Street in Elizabeth.
