What do
we do?
We provide intervention for employers and employees. Functioning as an employer-sponsored benefit, we help employees address workplace challenges and reach their greatest potential.
Our focus is to help companies create and maintain positive work environments by providing in-service training to improve communication, address harassment issues, identify job burnout and address other concerns relating to employee performance issues.
We provide assessment and treatment options, including referrals to other programs.
Contact us directly and request a session through your EAP. If you are unsure if your company provides EAP services, check with your Human Resource department.

The Program Concept
The EAP program began in the late 1970’s to address drug and alcohol issues in the workplace.
Since then, the help that EAPs provide companies has increased significantly. A contracted program between Family Services and your place of work, EAP aims to help employees and their families resolve interference of personal issues in job performance.
