About

The Employee Assistance Program (EAP) provides confidential, professional support services to help MAF employees and their family members address personal, family, and workplace challenges that may affect overall well-being and job performance. Our goal is to promote a healthy, productive workforce by offering guidance, resources, and assistance when it is needed most.

EAP services include:

  • Free onsite counseling and consultation for MAF employees and their family members.
  • Management consultation services to help supervisors identify, address, and refer employees who may be experiencing stress or personal challenges that are impacting workplace performance.
  • Crisis counseling and support for employees affected by traumatic events, whether they occur on-site or off-site.
