Networking
Communicate with other NIEAPA Members
Introducing the Northern Illinois Employee Assistance Professionals Association Listserv
What is a Listserv?
A listserv is an electronic discussion board that enables NIEAPA members who have subscribed to the list to communicate with one another using a special e-mailing program.
Why would I want to join?
NIEAPA's Chapter Listserv provides a focused opportunity for networking as well as a forum for discussing issues of specific importance to our membership.
How would I join?
Send an e-mail to Taranowski8717@Yahoo.com. Request to join the NIEAPA listserv. You must request to join. We will not enter your name on the list without your permission.
What happens when I join?
Membership in the listserv means instant communication with a large number of EAPs in our community. Your e-mail address is placed on the special mailing list. If you or others on the list have a question relevant to EAP practice, the message is posted. All the members of the listserv then receive a copy of your message. They can choose to respond with an answer to your question or contribute ideas of their own. The listserv can be particularly handy for seeking information about referrals in the community. It can also be useful for conducting on-line discussions about clinical, administrative or even philosophical issues related to EAPs.
Are the messages reviewed before they are posted?
Yes. When you send a message the administrator will review it for relevance to this group. The administrator reserves the right to determine if a message is inappropriate. Please keep the messages pertinent to EAP practice. We will post messages about workshops important to our community. We will not post advertisements for individual services. If you wish to advertise a service, please purchase a paid advertisement in our Newsletter though our Administrator at NIEAPA@Comcast.net.
Who can be a member?
Participation in this service is limited to current paid members of EAPA and NIEAPA. We will verify membership by checking the lists we receive monthly from EAPA. You will be removed from the listserv if your membership expires or if you request to be taken off. A member may be dropped from the list if the administrator determines that the member is abusing the listserv opportunity.
