Path Forward is a nonprofit organization on a mission to get people back to work after they’ve taken time off to care for a loved one. We want to reduce the stigma that often comes when people take time for caregiving and provide an on ramp to paid employment.
Path Forward works with companies to create mid-career internship opportunities to re-enter the paid workforce. We believe there is a real opportunity to help companies tap into a talent pool that often goes overlooked and to increase women’s participation in the paid workforce.
