You are invited to join the Bethany-Fenwick Area Chamber of Commerce and the Federal Reserve Bank of Philadelphia for an event exploring current labor market dynamics in Delaware on Wednesday, May 8th, from 9 - 11AM.  This two-part series seeks to better understand how current labor market conditions are impacting Sussex County and identify opportunities for future collaboration.

Please join us for the first session to hear what recent research and current data say about today's labor market.  In addition to hearing from Community Development Research Analyst Theresa Dunne, attendees are invited to share their insights on the current state of the labor market, what challenges may exist, and how organizations can work together to support local communities.  As conditions continue to evolve in 2024, we value the important perspective that businesses provide on seasonal employment trends and hope you will join us for this conversation. 

We hope that you will attend both the first session on May 8th as well as the second session to be held in September.  Additional details regarding the session will be circulated to all registrants.  

This is an invitation-only event, and space will be limited.  If you are interested in attending, please register via the green "Register Now" button by Monday, May 6th, and Chamber staff will follow up to confirm your attendance.
