COVID-19 Resource Center

In the early days of the COVID-19 crisis in the U.S., JUST Capital pivoted its efforts to focus on how coronavirus has impacted American workers and businesses, and continued to build on this work over the last year. In addition to our COVID-19 Corporate Response Tracker – which analyzes how America’s 1,000 largest public employers responded during the initial months of the pandemic – we have been building resources for corporate and investment leaders looking to build back better on the other side of our health and economic crises.
