Wellness
Better Me helps RIT employees improve their happiness through awareness and acceptance of their feelings, recognizing limitations, and coping effectively with life’s challenges. Better Me offers this support through two workshop series and RIT’s Employee Assistance Program.
Employee Assistance Program (EAP)
Personal issues, planning for life events, or managing daily life can affect your work, health, and family. Regular full- and part-time employees, their spouses or partners, and eligible children can receive counseling, financial resources, legal support and work-life solutions though RIT’s EAP (Employee Assistance Program).
