EAP Newsletter
Recently, Kathy Ferguson and Victor Acosta, District 141 and Paul Schultz and Stephanie Starks District 142 responded to the Orlando Night club shooting. We had many members affected – the team spent time with the members who were directly affected and also those members who knew people that had been there. Thanks to Kathy, Victor, Paul and Stephanie, we were able to address the needs of those who wanted immediate help and follow up with the folks who will utilize continuing services.
The July EAP Helping Hands monthly newsletter is about caregiving this month. To read this edition and past editons visit: Helping Hands
