Maximus Employee Assistance Fund

The Employee Assistance Fund (EAF) offers employees in the United States assistance during pivotal moments. When the unexpected happens – a large-scale disaster or a personal hardship – the Employee Assistance Fund may be available to provide financial support. Applications are accepted year-round.

The EAF portal and My Maximus will request your Maximus login credentials with Azure Multifactor Authentication (MFA). Please contact the Maximus IT Help Desk for step-by-step login guidance or to verify that you have a working Azure token on your personal device.

The Employee Assistance Fund provides short-term assistance with basic living expenses in response to financial hardship caused by large-scale disasters, personal disasters, or personal hardships as a result of a family emergency or other sudden, severe, overwhelming, or unexpected event.
