Work Environment

At KVC Nebraska, we deliver vital services that help youth, adults and families thrive. From foster care and family reunification to Shared Living for people with disabilities, intensive in-home support, outpatient therapy and substance use evaluation and treatment—we meet people where they are with practical, caring solutions.

We’re proud to be part of KVC Health Systems, a nonprofit network with over 65 locations across five states. While the broader network offers inpatient psychiatric treatment and therapeutic schools, KVC Nebraska focuses on community-based services that create lasting change close to home.

While workplace setting varies, we’ve been known for decades for offering flexibility. Many roles allow for hybrid or remote work, and we provide tools for employees to succeed. We also encourage teamwork through digital collaboration tools, open-office designs and a focus on cross-departmental partnerships.

Employee Engagement

Since 2019, KVC has been laser-focused on supporting employee engagement by creating a positive, supportive workplace. Twice each year, all employees are invited to share their voices and be heard through our Q12 employee engagement survey. From there, local teams discuss the feedback and strategize on how to continue building on what’s working well.

The results speak for themselves: while U.S. employee engagement has been trending downward nationally, it’s been soaring to record heights at KVC. And we’re just getting started in creating an exceptional place to work! Learn more about KVC’s culture of engagement.

“At KVC we are unlocking the full potential of our workforce with the Gallup Q12 survey, a powerful tool designed to enhance employee engagement and drive meaningful culture change through continuous improvement and coaching. By focusing on the essential elements that contribute to a thriving workplace, the Gallup Q12 survey empowers organizations to foster collaboration, boost morale, and increase productivity, ultimately leading to a more motivated and committed team.” – Renny Arensberg, Executive Vice President of Employee Engagement
