In the context of employment, social capital can be seen as a positive asset for those who are seeking to find work or change jobs within the market. It can also be considered in terms of creating opportunities for career progression and job retention. Though commonly identified as a positive asset, social capital can also be seen as a disadvantage for marginalized groups. Today, we join Dr. Gina Merritt, to discuss her social capital platform that has been used to connect people in low-income communities with jobs, the impacts of COVID-19 on unemployment and how we go about eliminating inequities in employment opportunities.
