Washington State Employee Assistance Program (EAP)

South Puget Sound Community College is committed to assisting our employees by offering Employee Assistance Program resources to help employees and their families cope and thrive through the financial and emotional challenges that we all face. The EAP provides you and your family with information and resources to find positive outcomes in difficult times. The EAP can help with work, home or family life issues and everything remains confidential.

For example, here are some common situations where you may just need someone to talk to:

  • You need to have a difficult conversation with your employee or boss and are are looking for coaching.
  • Your teenager is heading a direction that makes you nervous and you feel at a loss for what to do.
  • You are looking for resources to help you and your aging parents make life decisions.
  • Your work-life balance seems out-of-balance and you are getting concerned.
  • Your relationship with your partner seems to be struggling more than it should be.
  • You can't figure out if you are being bullied by someone or if it's just you.
