Board approves GrowWell master service agreement and mental-health component for staff
Summary
The board approved a three-year master service agreement with GrowWell to expand district staff benefits, including mental-wellness services, EAP, DOT physicals and work-comp coordination, with rollout to buildings after approval.
The Board of Education approved a three-year master services agreement with GrowWell that will consolidate and expand staff health-related services, the district’s CFO told the board.
CFO Jessica Nava (name as referenced in the meeting) recommended approval of both the master services agreement and an added mental-wellness component, saying she had reviewed costs against the district’s health reserve fund and was comfortable proceeding. The presentation said the district will move employee DOT physicals, the employee assistance program (EAP) and work-comp services to GrowWell where possible, and GrowWell staff will visit individual buildings to promote available services and schedule appointments.
Board members confirmed the agreement is for three years. After a voice motion to approve, the board carried the motion.
Staff said GrowWell will coordinate with building principals on rollout logistics and scheduling.
