The non-medical home care company is one of
only 100 franchises selected for the prestigious list this
year
SAN
ANTONIO, May 23, 2024 /PRNewswire/ -- Caring Senior
Service, a non-medical home care services company, has been named
one of Entrepreneur magazine's Top 100 Franchises for Diversity,
Equity and Inclusion for 2024.
"We are thrilled with our inclusion in Entrepreneur's Top
Franchises for DEI list this year and consider it a reflection of
our collective commitment to inclusion," said Caring Senior Service
founder and CEO Jeff Salter. "We
believe in diversity of thought and opinion, and we actively
recruit team members with distinctive identities. Our goal is to
match our clients with the caregivers who will work well with them,
and this diversity helps fulfill this goal. Our team of fantastic
franchise owners come from a variety of diverse backgrounds, but we
all share a common goal: to help seniors throughout the country
remain safely at home."
All of the companies recognized in Entrepreneur's Top Franchises
for Diversity, Equity and Inclusion list were chosen editorially,
and are listed in alphabetical order. The list is featured in the
May/June issue of the print magazine and can be viewed online by
visiting
https://www.entrepreneur.com/franchises/directory/top-diversity-ranking.
The editors based their decisions on information submitted by
the companies, as well as their own independent research. Brands
were selected for a variety of reasons. Some offer franchise fee
discounts and other assistance to help those who identify as BIPOC
(Black, Indigenous, and people of color), women, or LGBTQ+. Some
promote diversity, equity, and inclusion in other ways, including
the communities they serve and the services they offer; initiatives
and programs they have implemented at both the corporate and
franchise level; representation among their leadership team,
franchisees, and employees; and more.
"Franchising is truly an opportunity that's available to all,
but not everyone is aware that it's within their reach," said Jason
Feifer, editor in chief of Entrepreneur magazine. "That's why we
want to celebrate the brands that do the most to expand
opportunities for everyone—and who are improving their businesses
by ensuring that many different voices and experiences are
welcomed."
Caring Senior Service opened its first location in Odessa, Texas, in 1991, and added several
other locations in the Lone Star State before creating its
franchise development division in 2002. The company now has more
than 50 locations in nearly 20 states. For more information about
