Business Community Role in Primary Prevention

Family-forward workplace policies ARE a primary prevention resource. Family-forward policies benefit the business, families, and South Dakota children.

• Businesses: family-forward policies boost competitive advantage, attracting and retaining talent, increasing productivity, and reducing turnovers.
• Families: employees of family-forward workplaces are more satisfied with their work, and engaged in facilitating nurturing and stable environments for their families.
• South Dakota children: parents who work in family-forward businesses experience less stress and enhanced well-being, giving them time to support children’s safety, stability, and build nurturing relationships.

Is your business a family-forward workplace? We invite South Dakota business leaders to join our Business for Babies initiative. Let us know if you are interested, and a CPCM staff member will contact you to highlight your business or organization.
