Congratulations to the Multi-Generation Program graduates who completed an 8-week training and earned their State Accredited Customer Service Training Certification.

Specific outcomes of the program are as follows:
7 families completed the full 8 weeks of the program
7 EARN participants completed and were awarded the State Accredited Customer Service Training Certification
4 participants became employed
2 participants have pending employment
1 participant is actively working with a licensed family advocate to overcome employment barriers
15 children received age-specific teaching instruction
All families were taught the importance of family meal time by sitting down to dinners together during the program

For the 7th year in a row, EDSI has been recognized for its commitment to excellence in employee enrichment and HR practices as a winner of The Best and Brightest Companies to Work For® competition. Out of 2,400 nominations, EDSI was among 511 other companies honored. Go, team!

It is our pleasure to announce that EDSI has been awarded a Top Workplaces 2019 honor by The Philadelphia Inquirer. Winners were recognized at an awards program and acknowledged in a special print section of The Inquirer. The award is based solely on employee feedback gathered through a third-party survey that measures several aspects of workplace culture, including alignment, execution and connection, just to name a few. Being named a Top Workplace is a big deal — only 125 companies made this year’s list. Thank you to all of our outstanding employees who gave EDSI the thumbs-up! We appreciate each and every one of you.

3 Cheers for Jeans Day! During the last two Fridays of each month, employees are invited to wear jeans for a minimum $5 donation. Many employees look forward to dressing down and supporting worthy charities in the process. Employees throughout the company are encouraged to make suggestions on which organizations to support and the Dearborn Office's Executive Assistant keeps a list, ensuring each one is included throughout the year. In 2018, EDSI donated $6,200 to these 12 charities, including:
Kids Making It
National Kidney Foundation
Cancer Foundation
Options for Women
Dreams for Kids
American Diabetes Association
National Ovarian Cancer Coalition
Hope Station
Cape Fear Volunteer Center
Harrisburg Inspiring Connections Outdoors
Quality Health Africa
UNICEF
In 2019, 12 more worthy charities will benefit from the generosity of our employees who participate in the Jeans Day program.
