Corporate HANDS -- Caring
Companies at Work
A collaboration of Houston’s leading employers, Corporate
HANDS is dedicated to increasing the quality and supply of both
child care and elder care in the communities where their employees
live and work.
Corporate HANDS was founded in 1992 as an extension of a national
organization, the American Business Collaboration (ABC). ABC was
formed to address the business issues created by employees trying
to balance work and family responsibilities.
Through two specialized nonprofit agencies, Collaborative
for Children and Sheltering
Arms Senior Services, Corporate HANDS designs and implements
programs which provide counseling, education, information, equipment,
resources and training to address the dependent care needs of Houston
area employees.
To date, Corporate HANDS has invested over $9 million in dependent
care projects and assisted thousands of employees in the care of
their families.
Corporate HANDS is one of the strongest local business collaborations
in the United States today.
