Canal Alliance Named a Best Place to Work in the North Bay for the Second Year in a Row 

NBBJ

Canal Alliance is honored to share that we have been named one of the 2026 Best Places to Work by the North Bay Business Journal. This recognition is especially meaningful because it marks our second consecutive win, following our 2025 honor. 

For more than four decades, Canal Alliance has worked alongside Latino immigrants and their families in Marin County as they pursue safety, stability, opportunity, and their dreams. That work is made possible by our incredible team, whose expertise, lived experience, cultural competency, and deep commitment to community shape everything we do. 

At Canal Alliance, we believe that supporting our community starts with supporting the people doing the work. Over the past several years, we have continued investing in an inclusive and sustainable workplace culture through strong benefits, professional development, mental health support, a hybrid workplace model, and a four-day workweek. As we have shared in our blogs on the four-day workweek, this shift has helped us align our internal practices with our external mission by centering trust, accountability, equity, and care. 

Our second consecutive Best Places to Work win is not just a recognition of policies or benefits. It is a reflection of the culture our team continues to build together: one grounded in community, integrity, adaptability, empowerment, justice, and joy. We are grateful to the North Bay Business Journal and The Press Democrat for this honor, and most of all, to our staff, whose care, creativity, resilience, and commitment make Canal Alliance a place where people can thrive.
