Hiring for Hope  is a grassroots movement and a national 501(c)3 organization focused on reshaping the way people and organizations think, talk, act, and interact with each other about career and family issues.

Hiring for Hope is the home of the Job Angels movement founded by Mark Stelzner of Inflexion Advisors. Job Angels’ premise was that each member would commit to a single goal: helping just one person find gainful employment. This simple and effective career management program has already helped nearly 2,500 people find gainful employment.

With the help of about 130 volunteers, Hiring for Hope focuses on empowering more than 55,000 members with the ability to build and maintain economically-viable and sustainable lives and families.

Tegan Acree, Founder and President of Hiring for Hope, has nearly 15 years of experience as a senior human resources, training, and staffing industry executive managing multiple locations and resources nationally. Overseeing an organization serving over 55,000 job seekers, she is uniquely positioned to comment on job market and job seeker trends.
