Recruitment & Outreach

Our partners do not always have the manpower or resources to do direct hiring and outreach, that is where we come into play. Through the medium of our website, partnerships with community lead organizations, word of mouth, digital advertisement, social media and more, we will recruit individuals for various projects and for long term employment with our partners.

Resources

Many pending workers and some current workers are struggling with gathering resources and basic needs to begin a job. From work boots and equipment/tools to housing and transportation vouchers. We bridge the gap between the person and their ability to do their job. We have partnerships with local resource outlets in many cities to ensure that we can assist where it is needed.

Management & Evaluation

Our team can manage and assist in the communication efforts already set out by your management and can evaluate and report back efforts or help to institute a communication, coordination and outreach strategy for your project.

Training Opportunities

There are various high school programs, training opportunities, and apprenticeships for incumbent workers. We can assist in funneling and guiding individuals to these various entities. On the job training and learning assist with maintaining a high level of employment. An investment in training and education by our partners helps maintain long term engagement with workers.
