Stress, Grief and Trauma

We recognize that our employees and teams are going through a great deal right now and we want to continue to provide additional support and resources to assist you.

The UT System sponsored a conference call event through our Employee Assistance Program (EAP), Optum, to assist with dealing with the stress and trauma of the current COVID-19 crisis as well as the recent tornados.
