FOR EMPLOYERS

When we work together,
we can all go further

Together, we can build a more inclusive economy.

We believe that inclusive employment builds upon traditional diversity, equity, and inclusion efforts, whereby employers proactively flex how they hire and cultivate historically overlooked talent pools.

We align with businesses that want to hire, organizations and strategic partners that want to affect change, and individuals who want to do their part. We can help with talent. We need you to help with the opportunities.

SOURCE TALENTS

Looking for qualified, motivated entry-level talent? We have a team ready to take the headaches out of sourcing and find you the next members of your team.

ACTIVATE INCLUSION

Want to build a more inclusive workforce, but struggling to find the way? Join us for peer-based learning that translates DEI principles into practice.

BUILD COMMUNITY

Want your employees to feel the power of community connection? Partner with us for service opportunities and see firsthand how we are all in this together.

“Cara is the gold standard of community organizations that come alongside the job candidate, meet their individual needs, place them in transitional employment, and then transition them to meaningful jobs. ”
