Support services for students and employees

With recent events, we want to remind all faculty and staff of support services available.

TalkSpace is available for all our students using the keyword: Loggers. You may also have students reach out to Kellee Phillips, student care coordinator, at kellee.phillips@llcc.edu or 217-786-2409, if they are in need of additional support or are seeking mental health resources. Kellee can connect students with the appropriate resources.

Resources are available for employees through the Deer Oaks Higher Ed Employee Assistance Program (EAP). More information is available on the Health and Wellness section of the Employee Portal. If you have questions, please contact Rachel Duff, campus health and wellness coordinator, at rachel.duff@llcc.edu.

STUDENT WORKER JOB FAIR AUG. 28

Do you need a student employee to assist with various tasks in your office? LLCC offers on-campus jobs to students enrolled in at least six credits hours each semester. On-campus jobs are a great resource for students to advance their academic and professional goals.

To promote various on-campus jobs, LLCC Student Life in conjunction with LLCC Financial Aid will be hosting a Job Information Fair on Wednesday, Aug. 28 from 10:45 a.m. to 1 p.m. for LLCC offices to promote their on-campus jobs to LLCC students. If you’d like to participate, complete the Job Information Fair online registration form.

If you have any questions about the event, please contact Kristin Booher or Gianna Hines.

Important Health Insurance Update

Effective immediately, employees covered under a LLCC health insurance plan will begin receiving their explanation of benefits (EOB) via email rather than mailed to their homes. The EOB is a document that is sent to you each time you use your health insurance to explain how your benefits were applied to the claim. Currently, your EOB will be emailed to your LLCC email address. However, if you wish to change this to a personal email address, you may do so by contacting SISCO at 1-800-457-4726.
