The League prides itself on finding living wage jobs and workplace equity for its “job-seeking” clients. Employers are also primary customers. The League improves the quality of the workforce through partnerships with educators and the business community.

 
Our collaborative framework of work development partners brings together human resources personnel and managers to explore ways to improve race relations in the workplace and provide more living wage jobs for the League’s clients. The League also addresses barriers to employment, such as transportation, childcare, and “limited work history.”
