What is EAP?

Your EAP (Employee Assistance Program) is a confidential, professional counselling and wellness service that is there to provide support for those times when a little extra help is needed.

The program is available to permanent, probationary, and casual employees (and their eligible dependents) of the Thames Valley District School Board. The Board has selected TELUS Health as your EAP provider.

Visit the TVDSB TELUS Health website, or download the app and log in using your board credentials.

Who Are We?

More than half a million retired union members speak with one voice through the Congress of Union Retirees of Canada. Founded in 1991 as an affiliate of the Canadian Labour Congress, CURC advocates and lobbies on issues relevant to retired union members and their spouses.

Membership in CURC is open to retiree organizations of CLC-affiliated unions and individual retirees and their spouses. Members can get involved through CURC area councils and provincial or territorial federations.

The Executive Committee is elected at the convention held every three years. Together with representatives from each provincial and territorial federation, they make up the Executive Council, which meets at least twice a year.
