  • All members are eligible to use the counseling and information services provided by this program/unit in the Welfare Fund.
  • A full time, experienced social worker and peer counselors provide a “listening ear” and assistance with health-related issues ranging from planning a medical leave to undergoing cancer treatment; to care-giving for a frail parent to finding a marriage counselor or substance abuse treatment program.
  • Most counseling is conducted by phone but members are also welcome to visit the Welfare Fund during business hours. It is best to call ahead so that time will be set aside for you. Call the Fund’s main number at 212- 539-0500 and ask to speak with a Health and Cancer “HelpLine Counselor.”
  • All contacts are strictly confidential.
