Everyone has times when life feels like a lot.

Maybe you’re worried about an aging parent and don’t know where to begin looking for help. Perhaps financial concerns are keeping you awake at night. You may be dealing with stress at work, a relationship problem or a particularly difficult loss. Or maybe you simply have something on your mind and would benefit from talking it through with someone.

Whatever life is throwing your way, your NFDA membership gives you somewhere to turn.

Through the SupportLinc Member Assistance Program, NFDA members and their immediate family members have access to confidential support and resources for many of the challenges that arise at work and at home at no additional cost.

SupportLinc offers much more than counseling. Depending on what you need, you can:

• Talk with a licensed clinician 24 hours a day, 365 days a year.
• Receive up to three short-term counseling sessions, either in person or by video.
• Receive a free 30-minute consultation with an attorney.
• Consult with an experienced financial professional.
• Get help locating resources for child care, elder care, education, housing, home repair, pet care and other everyday needs.
• Access tools and resources related to stress, burnout, sleep and overall well-being.
• Use convenient digital options, including text-based support and virtual counseling.

Funeral professionals spend their careers helping families through some of life’s most difficult moments. But being the person others rely on doesn’t mean you always have to figure everything out on your own.

And SupportLinc isn’t only for a crisis. You don’t need to wait until a problem becomes overwhelming before reaching out. Sometimes a conversation, a referral or a little expert guidance is all you need to make a difficult situation more manageable.

SupportLinc is also available to your immediate family members, so be sure the people closest to you know this resource is available to them, too.

Most importantly, using SupportLinc is confidential. Whether you’re seeking emotional support, financial guidance, legal assistance or help with an everyday challenge, you can reach out knowing your privacy is protected.

The next time life throws something unexpected your way, remember: help may already be part of your NFDA membership. Click here to learn more about SupportLinc.
