Employment is a key focus of the conference, with 40 exhibitor booths teeming with companies and organizations actively seeking to hire diverse job seekers. The primary goal of the event is to facilitate employment opportunities for the estimated 1,500+ attendees.
Expungement is another critical area of focus for 40 Tons Brand. Building upon their successful Canna Get A Second Chance program, they are expanding their efforts to provide wraparound services to individuals impacted by the criminal justice system. The conference extends invitations to up to 800 people with criminal convictions, covering their ticket prices through corporate underwriting. This event will also feature one of the largest expungement clinics since the pandemic, with the support of community organizations, law schools, and law firms.
Education is an essential aspect of professional growth, and the conference offers various classes and courses to enhance registrants’ skills and job search proficiencies. Participants can engage in sessions such as Grow with Google, Responsible Vendor Training for Illinois certification in working with dispensaries, and career development courses.
Empowerment lies at the heart of the Level Up Career Conference. Through seven dynamic workshops featuring insightful panel discussions, attendees will gain valuable wisdom and inspiration. Topics range from the significance of diversity, equity, and inclusion (DEI) to life after a cannabis conviction.
Engagement is fostered through a press conference that brings together local and national media outlets, exhibitors, sponsors, and progressive political leaders. This creates a platform to highlight the event’s mission and the efforts made towards creating a more inclusive and just society.
As the conference draws to a close, attendees will celebrate Juneteenth with an unforgettable networking rooftop reception. This “Old School Block Party” on the college’s third floor will pay homage to Chicago’s historical block club parties, featuring African American businesses and restaurants that embody the vibrant Chitown vibe.
The Level Up Career Conference offers a unique opportunity to grow professionally while championing social impact and restorative justice. Whether you’re seeking employment, looking for guidance in career development, or interested in engaging with a community committed to positive change, this conference is a must-attend event.
