Each spring, the Chicago Park District hosts Teen Opportunity Fairs, typically at three city colleges. Chicago 13-to-19-year-olds can explore summer opportunities in parks, including jobs (ages 16+) and readiness programs (ages 13–15). Representatives from different organizations and park programs will be on-site to showcase their opportunities for teens.
