Forward information about COVID-19 Support Groups

“I hope that this finds you in good mental and physical health! During these extraordinary stressful times the EAP continues to look for ways to serve our Department and family members. With the pandemic we have hundreds of Department members that are struggling emotionally in isolation while they battle the COVID 19 virus. In order to to reach these members we are going to begin a support group over Microsoft Teams. The group will be run by an EAP Clinician and will be held once a week. As always, individual sessions will be provided upon request.

I ask your assistance by helping me to reach those CPD members who are on the Medical with COVID 19 and making them aware of this group. Anyone interested can call the EAP (312-743-0378) and leave a message for me or can contact me via email ( Robert.Sobo@chicagopolice.org) .

We are a team and together we can help ourselves, our peers, family through this difficult time. If you have any questions or suggestions, please do not hesitate to call me.”
