See below for the March issue of the Frontline Employee newsletter, offering information on wellness and productivity at work! Then, read March’s EAP topic: “Challenges for Single Parents”.
CHALLENGES FOR SINGLE PARENTS
Single parenting can be as fulfilling as raising children in a two-parent household. With single parenting, however, comes a unique set of challenges that require extra energy and commitment. Single parents can feel an enormous burden due to financial limitations, loss of personal time and assuming the roles traditionally held by two people. Talking about those pressures and identifying personal limitations can do a lot to alleviate the stress single parents sometimes experience.
If the stress of single parenting is building up and you need someone to talk to, call the Employee Assistance Program at 608-775-4780 or 1-800-327-9991.
