Employee Connect Plus is a program funded by the district that provides real-life support services to you and your family. The Employee Connect Plus program provides assistance with personal and work-related concerns, and counselors with master’s degrees are available 24/7. 

They can help you with issues such as depression, marital or family difficulties, addictions, legal and financial problems, or work/life issues such as locating child care or elder care, finding movers, locating kennels and pet care, and vacation planning. 

Your Employee Connect Plus counselor will help you assess your concerns and identify how to help. This may include meeting with a counselor for face-to-face visits. Employee Connect Plus sessions are designed for short-term problem resolution and are completely confidential. Your Employee Connect Plus counselor can also refer you to child-care and elder-care resources with confirmed vacancies meeting your specifications, onsite staff attorneys for legal questions, financial counselors for debt management, and community resources for self-help groups.
