The Opportunity
Overall, unemployment in the Richmond area is low, although unemployment remains high in selected geographic areas. We have an opportunity to enable thousands of Richmond-area residents with barriers to employment to move into one of the 43,000 job openings that lead to living wage careers.
Our Solution
Communities At Work is a framework that accelerates Impact Staffing of talent in the Richmond area into Living Wage Careers using a three-step formula that includes career pathway profiles for specific employers and industry sectors, Ready-Willing-Able candidate assessments, and coaching and integrated support services for employers and candidates.
How The CAW Framework Works
Traditional approaches to workforce development include candidate assessment, training, and placement. The CAW Framework adds employer engagement, sector readiness assessments, and candidate intake partner readiness assessments on the front end and an integrated approach to post-hire support to improve the efficiency of the community’s efforts and deliver a collective impact that was not possible prior to the development of the CAW Framework.
Meeting Stakeholder Needs
Whether you’re an employer or industry association competing for talent in the job market, a foundation or governmental organization looking to apply your community impact funds to their best use, a community-based organization trying to coordinate your efforts with others in the community, or a potential employee with specific barriers to employment, CAW helps you work together with others around a common vision for making a collective impact in the Richmond area.
