This is the third year in a row that Metra and Pace are offering free rides to students on the first day of classes. The CTA has traditionally offered free rides for elementary and high school students on the first day of public school in Chicago. #students
The site has spurred economic development through job creation and will improve access to employment by supporting Pace service throughout the south suburbs. #pace
Some employers present at this event include AFLAC, Nicor Gas, PACE, Legal Shield, the Helen Wheeler Center, the Illinois State Police, the City of Kankakee, the Illinois Department of Transportation, and more. #jobfair
To remove financial barriers for students to pursue and complete the program actively, Pace will cover the costs of tuition, training, books, fees, and other expenses associated with the program. #cdl
