Whether you’re running a business, a college, or an organization – everything is about people. So, when your colleagues need a little bit of assistance, they shouldn’t be treated like another line on a spreadsheet. They deserve a personal approach, delivered by a true partner.

That’s MYgroup. 

Since 1987, we’ve partnered with organizations to provide programs and services that build strong cultures, improve retention, and ensure that every employee can acheive their full potential in life and at work.
