At Kids In Crisis, we’re thrilled to announce an awesome achievement: we’ve officially been designated as a Kids In Crisis Recovery Friendly Workplace recognized by the state of Connecticut! This exciting development marks a significant step in our commitment to both the children we serve and the dedicated team that makes our mission possible.
What Does Being a Kids In Crisis Recovery Friendly Workplace Mean?
Becoming a Kids In Crisis Recovery Friendly Workplace isn’t just about earning a title – it’s about creating a culture of support, understanding, and empowerment. Here’s why this matters so much:
- Breaking Down Stigma: We’ve cultivated an environment where our team feels safe to speak up about mental health and substance use challenges without fear of judgment or consequences.
- Investing in Our Greatest Asset: Our staff pours their hearts into caring for children in need. As a Kids in Crisis Recovery Friendly Workplace, we ensure they have the support to care for themselves, too.

When you support Kids In Crisis, you’re not just helping the children we serve – you’re backing a workplace culture that values mental health and recovery. As a Kids In Crisis Recovery Friendly Workplace, we’re creating positive change that extends far beyond our office walls.
