AB  - This article describes the significance of mutual aid and self‐help
groups for employee assistance programmes (EAPs). In an era of dwindling
resources, groups can be valuable adjunctive resources. Examples given
are a recovery network of AA members at the workplace willing to act in
a 12‐step fashion with EAP clients, a co‐dependency assessment and
support group, a supervisor′s mutual aid support group and a peer
support group diversity network. The benefit to EAP professionals of
developing these groups is an expanded range of referral resources,
increased visibility for the EAP and an opportunity to engage in
community building within the workplace.
