Coastline Employee Assistance Program (EAP) is available to ALL District and School-based employees and family members 24/7 to support the mental health and wellness of individual staff members and their families and help connect adults to additional resources and supports aligned to their needs.   

In the case of a school emergency, Coastline EAP can be contacted by school leaders and support staff as an important crisis response and recovery resource for all staff. For example, following a loss and/or traumatic event that impacts the entire school community, a clinician can be scheduled through the contact number below (and on flyer) to come to the school to provide whole group, small group, and individual supports to help process grief and loss and refer individuals to additional services if needed.  Attached is the current brochure and below is contact person(s) and email address to connect with if/when needed:
