Strengthening Our Community Commitment with Towards Employment

We are thrilled to share an exciting update about our ongoing partnership with Towards Employment. Our very own Tim Wenzel, VP of Operations & Administration, has been invited to join Towards Employment's newly established Employer Advisory Board (EAB). This invitation is a testament to the strong relationship we've built with Towards Employment and the impact we've made together in the community.

 

Towards Employment, a nonprofit organization, has been a beacon of hope for over 210,000 job seekers in Greater Cleveland since 1976. Their mission is to help individuals prepare for, gain, and retain meaningful employment. By providing support services, coaching, and forging partnerships with local employers like Acor Orthopaedic, Towards Employment helps build strong career paths and foster economic stability.

The newly formed Employer Advisory Board is a significant initiative aimed at enhancing Towards Employment’s programming by incorporating insights from industry leaders. As an EAB member, Tim will bring Acor's unique perspective to the table, helping shape strategies that address recruitment, retention, and the advancement of diverse talent across various industries.

Tim's involvement on the board will provide us with an invaluable opportunity to deepen our relationship with Towards Employment, improve our own hiring practices, and contribute to the success of the broader community. The EAB will meet quarterly, beginning with its inaugural meeting on September 12th, 2024, at the Towards Employment offices.

This partnership aligns perfectly with Acor's core values of collaboration, community engagement, and commitment to creating opportunities. We are proud of Tim’s appointment to the board and excited about the positive impact this will have on our community and our organization.

Let's continue to support Towards Employment's mission and celebrate the great work we're doing together to unlock potential and change lives.
