One of our biggest priorities here at EPI is supporting our workforce. They work with such compassion and commitment supporting the people we serve, directly or indirectly.
We’re excited to share we have received a one-time grant through the American Rescue Plan Act (ARPA) solely to assist in our efforts of recruitment and retention of direct support professionals and those who support our community services programs and the people we serve in these programs.
The EPI board acted swiftly to approve the distribution of these funds to community services support staff in the form of retention bonus payments. This means eligible employees may receive up to two retention bonus payments distributed over the next year.
Thank you to our staff for their ongoing dedication in fulfilling our mission of connecting people, nurturing growth, and creating opportunities.
