We offer a platform for our agencies to collectively showcase the Power of Possible™, enabling them to focus on delivering proven services and solving systemic problems.
Every day, The Fedcap Group, in partnership with business, government, academia and community partners, is improving lives. We deliver measurable shifts in economic self-sufficiency for individuals while helping companies, insurers, local governments and educators meet their objectives.
Our innovative approaches to Education, Workforce Development, Health and Economic Development funnel through our national footprint of companies and impact the lives of over 300,000 people annually in the U.S. and Europe.
Community Work Services was founded over 140 years ago by Annie Adams Fields in Boston to improve the lives of the city’s poor.
Ms. Fields believed that access to high-quality education and employment opportunities was the most critical way she could improve the lives of those in poverty. She sought to apply business principles and efficiency to this mission.
Since then, CWS has stayed true to the mission set by our founders, while also expanding the scope of our programs and widening the range of the populations and geography we serve.
