Help is Just a Phone Call Away

By Diane North, Editor/MAP Coordinator

Do you have life problems that just won't go away?  Are you grieving a death you think you will never recover from?  Is your marriage suffering from all sots of problems?  Does your son/daughter give you more problems than you can deal with?  The list of questions can go on and on.  Where ever you have a problem, I believe our Union has supplied you with a place to go for the answers.  APWU has negotiated a couple of programs to help us with our lives and the lives of our loved ones.  And our own Broward County APWU 1201 has added it's own program for your assistance.

Listed below are two of the programs that have been negotiated through our National Contract with the USPS, how to contact them and some of what they can provide for you.
