Employee Assistance Professionals Association
The "Spotlight on Employee Assistance" is a roundup of bit-sized news items relevant to EA. This month, we learn that 40% of large employers launched or revised EAPs in the past 5 years, veterinary medicine practices are urged to implement EAPs to combat that profession's high suicide rate, and how to engage men in corporate wellness programs. The EAP Professional Spotlight features Mike Jacquart, editor of the Journal of Employee Assistance. And there's more.

In 1991, Karestan Koenen was a recent college graduate and Peace Corps volunteer who arrived in a village in Niger eager to help local women start small businesses. When her sister came to visit during Christmas, the two decided to travel north to Agadez, a city in the Sahara.
There, on the morning of Dec. 27, two male traders stopped by, trying to sell them jewelry. Koenen’s sister went to the market with one of men to have a look. While she was gone, the second man grabbed Koenen, held her down and raped her.
