Employee Assistance Program

General Information

The City of New York offers its employees and their dependents a helping hand through a network of Employee Assistance Programs. Generally, an EAP provides education, information, counseling and individualized referrals to assist with a wide range of personal and social problems.

The NYC EAP provides services to the City of New York non-uniform Mayoral agencies, NYC Department of Correction, New York City Housing Authority and NYC Health + Hospitals. Employees and their family members of these agencies can receive services by calling (212) 306-7660 or e-mail us at eap@olr.nyc.gov. Confidentiality laws and regulations protect the personal information that may be discussed with the EAP. Except in certain extreme situations, information will not be released without your written permission.

Employees who are not covered by the NYC EAP can receive services from either their agency or union EAP. Since not all EAPs offer the same services, we encourage you to call your agency or union EAP for further details.
