Research on worker experience (for you and your communities!)

For many nonprofits, especially those in training and re-skilling, there's been a noticeable slowdown in hiring and placement. We're seeing it in our data as well. Job search and job loss has gone from 4% to 40% of text line volume.

Empower Work, a national nonprofit that provides a crisis text line for workers, just launched our 2024 workers report survey to gain deeper insights on this trend. We hope to reach a higher target – 1,000-3,000 – this year and would love your help! 

Can you take a moment and share the 5 minute survey with your community?

Our goal is to uplift workers’ voices and tell their stories in ways that aren't currently being elevated. In order to do that, we’d like to get word out to ensure that our sample size is large enough for more folks to pay attention to when it comes time to announce the findings. 

Would love it if you could share the survey with your community - those currently in programs and alum by July 31st. This document will provide you with sharing language for community outreach. It would be so powerful to have your community included. As appreciation, if you wanted, Empower Work would list you as one of the partners who participated when we share the findings with media.

Please let me know if this might be of interest/possible - I know it's a tight turnaround! Or if you have any questions, you can reach out to our team at team AT empowerwork.org.
