Benefits
At HACC, Central Pennsylvania's Community College, we know that employees such as YOU, who are focused on our mission and exhibit our core values of integrity, collegiality, excellence, and trust, are our most valuable assets. That is why we provide a comprehensive benefit program. Below are some highlights of the benefits offered at HACC:

Services provided by Mazzitti & Sullivan cover all employees, as well as all residents of the employee’s home and any dependents up to age 26. Services are accessible 24/7/365.
