Employee Assistance Program
The Employee Assistance Program (EAP) addresses a number of concerns that can interrupt peace in our lives. This service provides help for people facing marital or family problems and emotional struggles. All of us deal with stress and the challenge of coping effectively in today’s complex world. When stress mounts it can interfere with our relationships, functioning, and even our health.
Employees and their family members are provided with up to five free counseling sessions per year through our Employee Assistance Program (EAP).
