Staff Retention Resource Info-Session: TrueNorth Health Benefits Bundle


Is high turnover emptying your classrooms? You are not alone. 78% of employees would leave a job if the benefits didn't meet their needs, making affordable health benefits one of the best recruitment and retention tools (2024 Intuit QuickBooks Allstate Health Solutions Benefits Survey).

Join COAEYC, ECCLA, and TrueNorth to discover the Health Benefits Bundle, a specialized resource designed for child care programs.

In this brief session, TrueNorth showcases:

  • Affordable Retention Tools: Free access to a benefits marketplace powered by Wallit.

  • Flexible Options: Customizable, à la carte choices for direct primary care, prescription medications, dental, vision, pet insurance, and more.

  • Immediate Support: Resources for immediate health and well-being support for your team.

This is a great resource briefing for program directors seeking solutions to support their staff.
