Employee Assistance Program

The University provides a confidential employee assistance program through Deaconess CONCERN which provides assessment, short-term counseling, referral and follow-up services for eligible employees and members of their household. Family, marital, financial, or work-related problems are dealt with in a completely confidential manner by one of the EAP counselors. Employees and members of their household are eligible for up to eight free visits; additional visits are covered by most health plans.  The cost of the EAP is paid by the University.
