Thank you for your very thoughtful review. KVC is proud to offer many wonderful benefits, as you pointed out. While social work is a heart-centered career, not a dollar-centric career, KVC salaries are on the more generous side of the industry average. To clarify though, KVC always reimburses our employees, regardless of budgetary constraints, as long as those requests for reimbursement are made within 60 days of the event, as clearly stated in our policies.
With regard to promotions, it is understandably challenging to process when one person is selected over another for promotion, when both applicants have differing strengths and areas for growth. Co-workers rarely have all the available information on which such decisions are made.
At KVC, we value all our hard-working employees for the difficult and vital work they do helping families. Each team celebrates triumphs in different, often creative ways. Perhaps you would be interested in the many ways the KVC Communications team helps spread the word about the amazing work our Family Preservation teams are doing specifically. KVC produces numerous blog articles on the subject of keeping families safely together, which are shared through social media, email and on our website here [https://kansas.kvc.org/category/keeping-families-safely-together/]. Our most recent article, in fact, details the many ways the Family First Act will positively affect the nation’s Family Preservation efforts. You can access that article here.
