Employee Assistance Program (EAP)

  • In today's society, we're responsible for carrying a heavy load of responsibilities that includes our careers, homes, families, and more. It is no wonder we may need a little help from time to time. Georgetown ISD and American Fidelity understand the work/life balance pressures and demands. We are excited to provide an Employee Assistance Program (EAP) with work/life services, legal, financial consultation, grief services, and more.

    An EAP is a place to call for confidential assistance for personal issues. Conversations with professional counselors are treated confidentially, with information released only with your permission, in accordance with state and federal law.  Whether you are facing challenges of a day-to-day issue or a major life event, the EAP can assist.

    Remember caring professionals are here to help. More information is available via the document below.
