     This month Helping Hands features the “find treatment.gov” part of the SAMSHA.gov (Substance Abuse and Mental Health Services Agency) web pages. There are a lot of hyperlinks in the electronic version of Helping Hands. I encourage you to explore the hyperlinks so you know what is available within this resource. There are a lot of great links to help find treatment and help vet treatment resources. The second page highlights informed questions to ask when considering treatment and questions to explore with a treatment resource you are considering.

November Helping Hands: Well-Being

November Helping Hands: Well-Being

November Helping Hands: Well-Being

EAP Peer Coordinators:

 
     This month we cover well-being. Many companies are stepping up and realizing that retaining high-caliber employees means offering benefits that are attractive and help retain people. The focus is on the different aspects of well-being – emotional, physical, social and work are a few examples. Please share this with your groups and feel free to put your contact information on the placard on page 2 so they know who to contact. I included both the PDF and .docx versions – so you can customize the issue with your contact information. 
 
       The holidays look to be a roller coaster ride this year – please be sure to do the things you need to to take good care of yourselves. Our co-workers may be experiencing difficult circumstances, and we can be a good source of information and referrals to “ease” the way. As always, your EAP leadership team is here to support your efforts. Please don’t hesitate to call Chris Davis, Tony Rodriguez, myself, or any of the EAP Regional team with any questions or situations. 
 

       Thank you for the time you are dedicating to EAP and helping others. I believe helping others is core to all of our purpose! 

 

Bryan,

October Helping Hands: Mental Health Awareness Month

EAP Peer Coordinators:

 
     October is Mental Health awareness month – Helping Hands addresses what a mental health condition is, where you can get good information (heavy emphasis on good), what therapy is about and how to find a counselor. We cover a lot of ground this month, it should be good information to share with your folks. 
 

      The pandemic has made it easier to talk about mental health. Mental health concerns are more prevalent than ever. Please help your folks talk about their issues and encourage them to seek help. As always all of us are available to support you in whatever way you may need.

September Helping Hands: Healthy Budgeting

EAP Peer Volunteers:
 
      This month we focus on financial issues – specifically budgeting. While mental health issues are very prominent because of covid, financial issues are much more common than they were before 2019. The resources listed can help with many different financial concerns – the Consumer Finance Protection Bureau is a terrific resource for all of our members. They cover a lot of ground and a lot of financial topics. 
 

      Thank you for taking good care of our members. Being there for them in a time of need is important work and I am appreciative of all you are doing.
