This
year HIRED celebrates a major milestone – 40 years of
providing personalized and innovative work solutions to Twin
Cities area residents.
Since 1968, HIRED has helped more than 150,000
people find appropriate, meaningful employment. Originally
founded to help ex-offenders find jobs, over the years, our
mission and impact has grown. We now serve a wide range of
clients through individualized programs for youth, adults,
dislocated workers and MFIP recipients.
We are successful because of our unique approach.
Surely an important part of what we do is help people find
jobs. But HIRED does more. Much more. We’re committed
to thinking strategically about Minnesota’s employment
landscape and partnering with area employers and educational
institutions to train people for the jobs that will be most
needed in the coming years; jobs that will contribute to the
economic stability of our communities.
Our work is important and rewarding, but it’s
far from finished. This summer as we celebrate our accomplishments
and look to the next 40 years and beyond, I want to thank
you for your support and interest in HIRED’s future.
Without your partnership, we would certainly not be where
we are today.
