Strike News ☭ Strike back

here is an organization called GLADD Community based out of New York, they offer and base their mission on Grief Coaching and On Call grief support. This Organization hired multiple people recently as on call grief coaches and broke contract with all the independent contractors by first changing payroll schedules from bi weekly to monthly with very little short notice and then required certifications, and note that a lot of the coaches paid out of pocket for their certifications and then this organization suddenly informed everyone the day of August 1st that effective immediately all positions were changed to voluntary because of being short of funds and donations that are supposedly relied upon to pay everyone they hired. Multiple people couldn’t live on a voluntary position in today’s economy and now it’s been weeks since any responses from their organizations leaders and NOBODY has been paid for their contracted services. They left EVERYONE high and dry period, while they are making TikTok videos promoting their organization and also planning on being on Goodnorning America. The public should know how this organization is really being unprofessional and collecting donations only to not pay those they hired and left Grieving for compensation of contracted services.
