Our county values staff and leadership development and have a team of trainers in-house that are able to specialize training and staff/development opportunities specifically tailored to staff needs. In 2013-2014, we focused our efforts on Wellness in a series of learning opportunities entitled Lunch and Relax. We received a Blue Cross Blue Shield Grant in the amount of $4000 to support staff wellness. Our staff development team planned numerous learning event targeted towards the physical, spiritual and emotional health of employees. We recognize that our staff experience compassion fatigue related to the high-stress client services we provide. Our staff development team and our management team are dedicated to meeting staff needs and improving work quality of life. We focused our efforts through a targeted Lunch and Relax menu meant to appeal to staff in all program areas.
