KTRK
HOUSTON, Texas (KTRK) This week, more than 300,000 Texans could lose their unemployment benefits. But for one Houstonian, ABC13 s weekly virtual job fair changed her life.
Kendra Isom, mom of two, is one of 4 million Texans who filed for unemployment benefits this year.
With 2020 almost over, Isom wasn t sure where to turn. I cried, Isom said. I really did.
Isom, who worked in the medical field when the pandemic hit, received multiple offers after participating in the job fair. I knew it was going to happen, but not so fast, Isom said. Everything was so constant, and to this day I m still getting things.
