Early Childhood Council of Larimer County is thrilled to announce our FREE Employee Assistance Program (EAP) for early care educators in Larimer County. In partnership with ComPsych and with support from United Way and their generous donation to help get this implemented, our EAP is one of the ways we are moving forward with our goal of more fully supporting early childhood educators in our community. By providing access to a variety of health, financial, legal, and lifestyle services through programs like EAPs, we continue to elevate the role of early childhood educators in our county. And it’s one of the ways we’re celebrating providers this month as we kick off the program during the same week as National Provider Appreciation.
Now ALL licensed early care educators in Larimer County are able to register for this service!
