Company History

While coming of age in the Bronx, New York, Dr. Art Langer experienced limitations to education and employment opportunities. He often had to travel outside of his community to seek mentorship and guidance when it came to furthering his education. The lack of access to resources inspired him to dedicate his career to leveling the playing field for individuals from underserved communities and underrepresented groups. In 2003, Dr. Langer launched his first program at Columbia University, which would lay the foundation for Workforce Opportunity Services in 2005.
