Our MFAP Services

Online 24/7 Counselling Services
Through our provider, Homewood Health, members and their families have immediate access to a wide range of confidential counselling services offered 24/7 over the telephone. Guidance, support, and counselling are available to Members and their families in several life areas that can sometimes feel overwhelming. Each of us has home-life and Workplace related issues that we need help with from time to time.
Addiction Recovery Support
The MFAP supports members to recover from addictions, including but not limited to alcohol and substance use, gambling, shopping, sex, and violence. If attendance in a rehabilitation centre is required, every effort is made to find a facility close to your home community, allowing continued family support.
MFAP aid to Members through addiction recovery includes support before entering any rehabilitation program and, if needed, any needed assistance to return to work after completing your recovery program.


Emergency Psychological Support
The Power Sector Benefit Trust (PSBT) and the Member Family and Assistance Program (MFAP) provide Emergency Psychological Care to assist members facing severe mental health challenges.
Emergency Psychological Care benefits could cover up to 20 addition visits with a Clinical Psychologist. This emergency coverage is intended for members with extreme mental health issues who may pose as a threat to themselves or others.
