Since 1992, it has been the policy of the University to maintain an Employee Assistance Program (EAP), a strictly voluntary, confidential counselling, referral and information service providing a broad range of services to employees and their immediate family.

If you are eligible for Health Benefits at Concordia, counselling services in English and French are available to you at no cost to you 24 hours a day, 7 days a week through Concordia's external provider, Shepell-fgi.

For appointments, counselling or general information, you may call:

1-800-387-4765 (English Services)

1-800-361-5676 (French Services)

You are also encouraged to access the new web site from Shepell-fgi entitled workhealthlife.com

You'll discover e-counselling, a convenient, comfortable way to get the online support you need.

You'll also earn how to better cope with everyday demands, find your ideal work/life balance and improve your overall health.

The Concordia Drug and Alcohol Recovery Program (DARP) can provide you with the support, counselling, treatment and care necesssary to successfully manage your addictive behaviours and return to a healthy and productive life. Click here for further information.
