HigHER Abilities: How Unseen Skills Power the Future of Work
Our project helps employers see and hire nontraditional women differently by integrating real stories into hiring tools, training, and workforce partner programs.
Nontraditional women bring the skills and resilience today's workplaces need, yet outdated career narratives still shape biased hiring and management decisions. We will change those narratives by embedding real stories and practical tools into employer hiring, onboarding, and support systems. Through a targeted media campaign, narrative playbook, and employer toolkit, we aim to expand access to quality jobs, improve retention, and enable women to thrive in a rapidly changing economy.
