At one time or another each of us experiences a problem which, through perhaps not directly related to our employment, may adversely affect our work performance. Most of these times we deal effectively with such problems independently, but sometimes personal problems require outside help and guidance. The University Faculty and Staff Assistance office was established in 1985 to serve as a confidential consultation, assessment, and referral program to assist individuals in their efforts to address personal problems which may negatively impact work performance. We welcome your questions, suggestions, and requests. Please feel free to call.
Confidentiality is one of the most important aspects of our program.
All records of your conference are kept separate from CSU, Chico records, including departmental and personnel employment files. The Faculty and Staff Assistance office will provide you with the opportunity to obtain the best professional help in an atmosphere of understanding, privacy, and complete confidentiality. Faculty and staff desiring confidential, personal assistance are encouraged to make an appointment whenever possible by calling 898-4645. The University has an appointed advisory board comprised of people who work on campus and in the community. Their job is to make sure we are meeting your needs.
