Business Services

Grant Associates was founded by a visionary team of women who saw an opportunity to solve staffing shortages through connections with Welfare-to-Work programs. In our first year we consulted with twenty Fortune 100 companies in sectors that primarily included retail (ToysRUs, CVS), food (Aramark), banking (Chase Citigroup, Bank of America), hospitality (Starwood Hotels) and Technology/Manufacturing (Xerox).

SECTOR FOCUSED STRATEGIES

Our early business engagement defined our demand-driven sector-specific approach to workforce development. Today, with funding from our government partners, we draw a wide range of potential candidates from local communities to our hiring events and offer customized training programs that create pipelines of skilled works—all at no cost. Through our services, businesses have access to labor market intelligence, as well as information on taxes and incentives. Moreover, we help small businesses grow by connecting them with first-class partners, government agencies, non-traditional lenders, attorneys, and educational institutions.
