EMPLOYEE ASSISTANCE PROGRAM

Goodwill-Easter Seals offers a confidential Employee Assistance Program (EAP) to all employees and
their immediate families. Employee Assistance Program services are designed to address difficult
experiences that employees sometimes encounter. Employee Assistance Program counselors
(professionals in the fields of psychology, social work, and counseling) are a resource to you and your
family in areas such as stress, parenting, divorce, financial concerns, substance abuse, and workplace
issues.

These programs are offered through a third party to respect the privacy of those who use the services.
Information on our EAP can be found on the organization’s intranet.
