Employee Assistance Program

We all experience life changes and challenges from time to time.  When you need some extra support, the Employee Assistance Program (EAP) is just a call or click away.  These services are all confidential and available to you at no additional cost to you and your family members (anyone living in your home). Licensed professionals are available 24/7. Through the EAP, you can access webcasts and the services listed below.
