Why we do it

Collaborative Benefit is a free service which connects potential employers to quality candidates who have been well educated and have shown intense desire to make an impact within a job. Here’s how it works:

We provide potential employers with access to a database and tools that give employers insight into the men, their thinking, and their capabilities before they’re released. The businesses can read the men’s social media contributions, get updates from their mentors and see videos of the men; an evolving-resume.

In addition, there are government tax incentives for any business that hire someone returning home, Join Collaborative Benefit, become a member business and get the unique ability to learn from other members and sponsors about how this step is working for them. Pioneers like Homeboy Industries, BTS Communications and Dave’s Killer Bread have years of experience, identified the challenges, and can share successes with other prospective employers.
