What employees are saying

I work with a diverse group of individuals, both staff and members. I love that we support each other, build each other up and help each other grow in our personal and professional lives.

I get to work at a job I love with the best people i know

My job genuinely cares about me and everyone who works here and everyone we serve.

I know that I always have the potential to make a difference in someone's life. You do not always get that kind of fulfillment at any other place.

Staff really care about the people we serve and go above and beyond to meet their needs. Staff celebrate when someone reaches their goals and provide support during major life challenges. The pandemic brought an opportunity to see just how adaptive our staff could be in order to meet the needs of those we serve. The people who work at Reliance Health are extraordinary. The relationships with those we serve and with our staff are what I love most.

It's apparent that Reliance Health shares the same mission and values that I do. I feel like an equal at Reliance Health. They truly care for their employees as well as their members.

It is my passion

I get to do what I do best each day

I get to watch the members grow while I'm growing from my interactions with them. It allows me personal growth as well as professional. I am part of a team that communicates with one another, challenges each other and grows together. This is one of the few jobs I have had where i feel respected, humanized and supported not only by my supervisor, the management above her and my coworkers.

Each day my job consists of helping others. Can't get better than that.

I feel I make a difference.

I love working in such a positive and supportive atmosphere and feeling free to express my opinions, ask questions, and challenge things I disagree with, without fear of repercussions for doing so. I very much enjoy working with our members and this population and feeling like I can make a difference in the lives of people who struggle with mental illness just like I do.

It aligns with my personal values and gives me a sense of place

I feel valued as a member of a team that aligns with my goals and values, one that helps others connect with needed resources and services to be successful.
