First Step Staffing was proud to attend the 2026 VBSR Annual Conference in Burlington, Vermont, alongside nearly 500 business and community leaders focused on building a stronger, more inclusive economy.
From inspiring conversations to impactful workshops and a keynote from Jodi Anderson Jr., the day reinforced the importance of people-centered workforce solutions and community partnership.
Thank you to Vermont Businesses for Social Responsibility for creating a space for collaboration, learning, and action.
Our mission has always been about more than employment — it’s about helping people create stability, purpose, and a better future for themselves and their families.
Gregory was one of those people.
When he first came in for his interview, he was guarded. But little by little, his guard came down — because to us, our clients are more than just an application or a job placement. They’re people with stories, goals, families, and futures that matter.
As Gregory opened up, he shared his determination to build a better life for himself and his family, and in the process, he left a lasting impact on everyone who had the privilege of knowing him.
Though Gregory passed in 2024, his strength, resilience, and determination continue to inspire us every day.
It’s stories like Gregory’s that give us the motivation to continue this work, grow our impact, and help even more individuals find opportunity, stability, and hope through employment. His story will always remain part of our mission — and a reminder of why second chances matter so much.
