Every year our anchor institutions post 3,000 open positions. U3 Ventures worked with Henry Ford Health System to design a pilot hiring program which gives residents direct access to local jobs that could be implemented with all of the anchors.
In early 2013, Henry Ford Health Systems partnered Detroit Employment Solutions Corporation to modify this workforce development strategy and launched its pilot program in the early spring of 2013 For more information on the “Hire Local” strategy please contact Ed Potas at epotas@midtowndetroitinc.org or 313.420.6000.
