Elyse Rosenblum and Shawn Bohen founded Grads of Life, which was incubated by the national skilling organization Year Up, to advance a systems-change approach to closing the Opportunity Divide.
After identifying a gap in the corporate landscape, Elyse and Shawn set out to catalyze employer demand for diverse talent. Through a national Ad Council PSA campaign, original research and working directly with leading employers, the Grads of Life team built a movement of inclusive corporate leaders who are committed to increasing equity through employment.
We have a long history of helping companies address their talent needs while advancing economic justice.
