Name of Organization: Pomerol Partners LLC and Justice U

What problem is Pomerol Partners LLC trying to solve?

Pomerol’s executive leaders have been involved in leveraging technology to support anti-trafficking efforts through Justice U’s sister program Engage Together®. With a vision for employees at all levels to be educated on human trafficking and engaged in their local communities, the organization enrolled in Justice U’s Business for Good program.

How is Justice U part of the solution?

Justice U’s Business for Good program equips business leaders with the knowledge and strategy necessary to move from awareness to action. Through the three-part Learn How series and in-person coaching, businesses develop their own plan representing both internal corporate solutions and local community impact.

In the last six months, Pomerol Partners introduced new learning opportunities and updated our internal handbook policies related to business code of conduct and travel. Thanks to Justice U for channeling our passion into action."
