The July 2018 enhancements to the SRA Health Plan included the introduction of the Member Assistance Program (MAP). This is a program similar to the Employee and Family Assistance Programs you will have had while working. The MAP is a benefit under your Saskatchewan Retirees Association Health Plan – members and their dependants are eligible to receive MAP benefits.
The MAP delivers a variety of resources and professional services to help you live well. MAP is accessible on a confidential basis 24 hours a day, seven days a week, 365 days of the year.

Some of the topics covered are nutritional coaching, smoking cessation, retirement and post-retirement planning, elder and family care, legal advisory, financial coaching, relationship solutions, and grief and loss.
COUNSELLING
