Path Forward, Inc.
Path Forward is a nonprofit organization on a mission to empower people to restart their careers after time spent focused on caregiving. We fulfill this mission by working with companies to create midcareer internships — sometimes called “returnships” — to give women (and men) a jump start back to the paid workforce. We’ve worked with more than 40 companies, including Walmart, Intuit, Apple, NBCUniversal, PayPal, Verizon, Stripe, LendingClub and others. 82% of the participants in our programs were hired by the companies where they interned. More information about our program can be found here.
