Help Available to Manage Your Mental Well-being

The County is aware that recent violent incidents around the country are distressing to our employees.

We offer this reminder that the Employee Assistance Program is available to provide counseling and referral services to employees and family members. There is no cost, and consultations are confidential.

Professionally trained staff are available 24 hours a day, seven days a week. They are a resource for any emotional wellness concerns you may have.

Call the EAP’s toll free number at 888-777-6665 or visit the EAP website. (Sheriff’s Department sworn staff have access to their EAP provider by contacting The Counseling Team International at 800-222-9691.)

You can also discuss concerns about your mental health with your primary care doctor, and mental health benefits are available through the County’s health care plans.   

Additionally, the County provides ongoing support for emotional well-being through the Employee Wellness Program. It offers a variety of classes and events, such as meditation, yoga, and lunch & learns, focused on promoting improved mental health.

The County encourages you to make full use of any of the resources you would find helpful.
