Workforce
We believe in the power of a diverse and inclusive workforce. Partnering with organizations like PathStone, Jewish Family Services, Social Services for the Arab Community (SSFAC), and JRS, we provide tailored professional development opportunities to individuals from various backgrounds. Our workforce statistics demonstrate our commitment to diversity and inclusion, with a significant representation of women, minority communities, and individuals from underrepresented groups. We prioritize flexibility and family time, offering alternative work schedules, and actively recruit from diverse backgrounds, including seniors, military personnel, veterans, individuals with disabilities, and interns.
Marketplace
Promoting diversity and inclusion in our marketplace is paramount to our values. We are dedicated to supporting Minority Business Enterprises (MBEs), with a clear focus on increasing our MBE spend percentage. By actively engaging with diverse suppliers and partners, we aim to create opportunities for underrepresented businesses and foster an inclusive marketplace.
