I was given opportunities by a series of people in my life. I am where I am today because others saw things in me I had not yet been able to see. My mission is to be the person who gives opportunities to those not accustomed to getting opportunities. A felony is not a life sentence, but it takes a change in mindset to overcome. I believe that if you give opportunities, you usually receive gratitude and good work. My goal in life is to change how "temp workers" are seen and treated, making all workers equal. — Marcel HofkerStrive Staffing believes in "Inclusive Opportunity" because the only way to improve society is to bring opportunity to everyone. Right now there are nearly 70 million Americans that have criminal records, this is 1 in 3 people in our communities that have barriers to gainful employment. "The best social service program is a job."- L.K. If more people have opportunity in their community the community wins. Quality of life for families and individuals increases. The status quo of background qualifications is alienating a large diverse group of people who want to make better for themselves. This is our mission and its intertwined in our day to day business practice. We believe that those companies that rethink their background qualifications, becoming more inclusive, will see an increase of worker retention. People tend to be loyal to those that have invested in them.
