Thrive Inside

Employees of Auburn and AUM can take advantage of numerous self care and mental health wellness resources. Many of these are featured on the thrive! website.

Employee Assistance Program

Through our Employee Assistance Program (EAP), which is administered by Uprise Health, any full-time benefit-eligible employee — even those who don’t subscribe to our health insurance plan — has access to six EAP calls (up to 30 minutes each) per employee and per covered family member free of charge.

An EAP program is a confidential assessment, counseling, and referral service for all regular employees and their eligible dependents who need help with:

  • Marital and family issues

  • Alcohol and other drug dependency

  • Stress-related issues

  • Financial/legal referrals

  • Emotional problems

An EAP counselor can help identify problems and assist in working through them. The counselor can also determine the best alternatives and, if necessary, make appropriate referrals to other professionals who specialize in particular areas.

For more information, call 1-800-925-5327.

Mental Health and Substance Abuse Treatment

Our mental health and substance abuse treatments are administered by Uprise Health. Mental Health benefits address clinical issues such as depression, anxiety, abuse, childhood trauma, substance abuse, and other serious conditions. 

For more information, call 1-800-925-5327.
