“I'm very thankful to be a part of the Nonotuck team. A company that tries to make a difference in the life of the employees and the people we serve is truly something I celebrate.” – Nonotuck Employee

At Nonotuck we believe that to care for others, we must care for ourselves and that in order to best support the people we serve, we must cultivate wellness in our own lives. The Nonotuck Wellness Initiative aims to strengthen the Nonotuck community by supporting individual wellbeing, so each person can show up as their best selves in service of our mission. Through wellness programs hosted by Nonotuck, dedicated wellness hours, and partnerships with leading wellness organizations, the Wellness Initiative is constantly evolving to meet the needs of our community.

Nonotuck has always been committed to employee wellness: with staff surveys, great health insurance at a reasonable cost, plenty of time off, good starting salary and yearly raises with potential profit sharing.  In addition to these benefits and our core values, Nonotuck aims to foster a culture of kindness and civility though the Civility Initiative. The Civility Initiative began in 2009 to create Nonotuck as an island of civility in an ocean of incivility.

Nonotuck is deeply committed to Diversity, Equity and Inclusion. We are committed to fostering and maintaining a work environment where diversity, equity and inclusion are fully integrated into everything we do for the benefit of our employees and the people that we serve. Nonotuck welcomes people from all backgrounds and walks of life, and this is reflected in our largely diverse community.
