The Foraker Group

Since Foraker’s beginning we have been dedicated to the concept of shared services — or what is more commonly called “backroom services” — to support the sector. The rational for these services is simple — we are better when we work together. Foraker has proven this time and again in our many offerings of shared services including Financial Shared Services, our Pre-Development program, and our website design services, to name just a few. We are pleased to announce the latest addition to our suite of shared services — human resources.

Expanding on our already popular HR activities, which includes one-on-one work with organizations and our educational offerings, we have developed a program to truly fit the needs of the sector. Our work throughout Alaska is proof that this service is in high demand, and we are ready to meet that demand.

We are offering this service because often nonprofits do not have the capacity or the technical knowledge to deal with critical HR tasks, to prevent larger employee related problems, or to develop strategic HR initiatives. We also know that capacity, along with the costs of finding a qualified professional, pose a barrier to an effective human resources function for many organizations. For these reasons and many more, Foraker HR Shared Services is ready to support your organization.

Human Resources Shared Services will benefit Alaska’s nonprofit sector by providing access to affordable, professional HR support at both the strategic and administrative levels, while making the best use of an organization’s limited dollars. Additionally, sustainable and effective human resources aligned with the strategic direction of the organization will help with recruiting, retaining and, developing quality staff, along with reducing legal risks and improving organizational culture.

We look forward to exploring how this service can support the work of your organization. If you would like to learn more, please call us at 907-743-1200.
