Integrating Job Quality

Creating jobs is only part of the story — ensuring those jobs are good is what drives thriving communities.

In “Integrating a Job Quality Practice in Community Development Financial Institutions (CDFIs): A Q&A,” the Aspen Institute Economic Opportunities Program answers key questions, drawing on the work of 11 CDFIs, including Northern Initiatives, that participated in the Shared Success demonstration.

In this Q&A you will find:

  • Why adding a job quality lens can strengthen your CDFI’s impact
  • How to align job quality with your existing products and services
  • Practical ways to integrate job quality into your small business work
  • Tools, resources, and management insights to strengthen this work
