Since 1970, Harborquest’s unique approach—a combination
of mission-driven social entrepreneurship and employer-focused
service offerings—has been helping low-income, inner-city
workers earn a living while simultaneously serving businesses that need reliable,
lower-skilled workers.
As a service organization, we are passionate about our mission. And
we recognize that our mission can only be as successful as our ability
to plan and execute a sound, disciplined business strategy.
A Prepared Workforce
Harborquest’s intensive training programs enable our members to
acquire the attitudes, behaviors and social/professional skills they
need to become valued contributors at employers’ businesses.
Optimum Service Offerings
Harborquest goes to great lengths to provide our client firms with optimal
benefits from our services. Our staffing services are designed
to meet employers’ need for reliability, flexibility and convenience.
Our workers show up on time and are prepared to do a good job. As a value-added
service, we handle all the recruiting, screening and
paperwork.
We offer customized staffing solutions. Harborquest
provides competent workers for light industrial manufacturing,
hospitality, security, food service and direct
marketing industries.
20/20 View®, our direct-hire service,
lets businesses evaluate job candidates’ performance in their own
work setting before committing to hiring them for full-time employment.
And we never charge a placement fee for direct
hires.
Our unique approach has served us well. In a highly competitive industry,
we are able to generate a large portion of our operating budget from earned
income. Additional funding comes
from corporate and private philanthropic foundations, government agencies
and private donors.
