Care Solace - Connects Employees to Wellness Resources

Contra Costa County Office of Education has implemented a new mental health tool in our ongoing commitment to promote the health, safety, and well-being of our staff and families. In addition to our Employee Assistance Program with Optum (listed below), we have contracted with Care Solace to provide an additional layer of wellness care to our employees and school communities. Care Solace is a free service to all CCCOE employees, providing a concierge style approach to locating social-emotional, substance related, and wellness professionals.
