Accommodations and flexibility in the workplace make our workplaces better for everyone. #BetterWorkplaces #HumanResources #DisabilityInclusion ID: A group of happy employees sitting in front of a large table.

What a great day in NH! Our ME and NH management teams came together for a fantastic professional and personal growth day. We delved into critical identifiers of abuse and explored steps to keep those we love and support safe. After that, we got hands-on with a short self-defense class to empower ourselves! We wrapped up the day with some technology training. We left feeling energized and excited about all we learned! Thank you to Pat's Peak, Lorene Reagan RN, MS, and Eric Menard's Complete Martial Arts Academy for making our day totally awesome!
