Greyston’s positive impact in the areas of Open and Inclusive Hiring continues to be felt, and noticed, now more and more by national news networks. Case in point, ABC Nightly News visited Greyston headquarters and Greyston Bakery in October where its reporters interviewed Greyston President and Chief Executive Officer, Joe Kenner, and several Greyston Bakery bakers. The outcome of the visit was a heartwarming story about how Greyston’s hiring models have enabled individuals who face difficult barriers to employment find meaningful, and in most cases, life-altering employment. “The response to the ABC Nightly News story has been tremendous,” said Kenner, who has responded to scores of letters and emails from individuals from across the country who watched the ABC Nightly News feature and expressed their support and encouragement to Greyston as a result. “I’ve let ABC Nightly News know how appreciative we are that they recognized the vital role Greyston is playing in helping individuals who are having a hard time finding employment to surpass the barriers they face.”
