The Postal Employees’ Relief Fund and the USPS Employee Assistance Program are available to help those who have been affected by recent natural disasters.
The relief fund, also known as PERF, provides small grants to help qualifying individuals whose homes have been destroyed or left uninhabitable because of a natural disaster or house fire.
PERF is a charitable organization — fully funded by donations — and operated by the postal unions and management organizations.
The Employee Assistance Program, also known as EAP, helps employees and family members cope with a variety of situations, including life-altering disasters, changes at work and more routine matters.
