Benefits and Dues
The Alternative Staffing Alliance welcomes all alternative staffing practitioners, whether nonprofit or for-profit, and organizations and individuals who are exploring this enterprise strategy for workforce development or have an academic or policy interest in alternative staffing. We also invite supplier partners who provide quality products and services to staffing businesses and employment social enterprises.
Practitioner members are fee-for-service staffing service businesses that place and support marginalized job seekers. Membership is by organization, and multiple individuals within a member organization are welcome to participate and fully share all the benefits of membership.
Supplier Partner members provide quality products and services to staffing businesses and employment social enterprises, and are subject to approval to ensure quality and balance across product and service categories. Membership is by company.
Associate members include researchers, policymakers, workforce development professionals and other non-practitioners that have a professional or academic interest in the alternative staffing model. Membership is individual.
