Lutheran Social Service of Minnesota (LSS) is proud to partner with the Minnesota Council of Nonprofits (MCN) offering NuVantage Employee Resource services to MCN member organizations. NuVantage Employee Resource is a high-quality, high-touch Employee Assistance Program (EAP).

Employees are your most valuable asset. As a nonprofit organization, helping your employees maintain their health and wellness better equips them to serve your organization’s mission.

An EAP is a benefits program employers offer their employees to help them cope with personal struggles that could hinder their health, well-being or work performance.

A strong EAP can:

  • Improve employee morale
  • Increase employee productivity
  • Reduce absenteeism and employee turnover
  • Reduce employee grievances.
