Robin Janson, Urban Evolutions - Wisconsin

Appleton, WI

As co-founder and president of Urban Evolutions in Appleton WI, Robin Janson has dealt with the challenges of pushing the national construction industry to make planet-healthy choices for nearly 25 years. She takes that same determined approach to providing a healthy, fair and supportive workplace for her employees in a small business setting. Smaller staffs can have less flexibility when it comes to providing options for leave, both in economic terms and in providing job coverage. Despite those challenges, employees and businesses require clear, affordable, and reliable options for family leave. Robin looks forward to participating with fellow business owners in championing universal paid leave policies.
