Employees facing personal issues such as financial woes, family problems or substance abuse are less likely to perform effectively in their workplace, which, in turn, can be detrimental to an organization.
FEI Behavioral Health has offered businesses a number of employee support programs since 1979, including counseling, organizational development, crisis management and violence prevention in the workplace.
The organization describes itself this way: “As one of the oldest and most successful social enterprises in the United States, FEI has established a track record of innovation in workforce resilience services.”
Through FEI’s Milwaukee-based parent organization the Alliance for Strong Families and Communities, a nationwide network of hundreds of nonprofit organizations that aid nearly 5 million people yearly, FEI has been able to meet organizational goals and expand its mission “to create a healthy society and strong communities for all children, adults and families,” said Ted Uczen, president and chief executive officer of FEI.
