Workforce diversity is impactful

“The diversity of the workforce, being able to meet people from all different walks of life, and to walk alongside of them. To then assist a very diverse population in the State of Connecticut, those are some benefits that I take away from the job.” – Mitchell F., DAS

Your contribution matters

“Something that I really love about the people that I work with is that no one is afraid to share their own perspectives or their own ideas ... One of the reasons my bosses enjoy working with me is because I will tackle a problem from a different mindset.”
– Joseph F., DAS
