Private and Confidential

The St. Johns County School Board Employee Assistance Program (EAP) is designed to ensure confidentiality at all times. If you are a self-referral, no one employed by the School Board will know of your contact with the EAP (to the extent permitted by law).

If you are referred by your supervisor, only limited information can be released, and that is only with your specific written permission.


If you have a problem, call now!

People will have problems that sometimes spill over into their personal or professional lives. Usually, the individual solves them alone. Sometimes people are unable to solve these problems without help. It is our belief that most problems can be resolved if professional help is available.

This help is provided at no cost for St. Johns County School Board employees for their first three (3) EAP visits. If additional counseling is needed, employees will be encouraged to utilize their insurance coverage within its limitations.
