Allied Trades Assistance Program

Allied Trades Assistance Program ATAP is an award-winning EAP. In effect, ATAP is a program of unions, for unions and by unions.

ATAP’s mission is to promote service delivery for SUD and mental health to union members and their dependents & to protect the solvency of the health and welfare funds who are responsible for paying for treatment costs. Welcome to Allied Trades Assistance Program

ATAP is a non-profit, IRS approved, Pennsylvania corporation, created by Philadelphia Trade Unions to contain costs and promote improved service delivery for drug and alcohol abuse, mental health concerns and related issues to union members, retirees and dependents. The programs and policies of ATAP are formulated by a Board of Directors composed of union leaders, contractors and management concerned with cost and quality of drug and alcohol treatment and related problems. The staff of ATAP is directly responsive to the specific needs to eligible union members, their dependents and retirees in providing personal, confidential and appropriate referral and follow-up services. The problems of substance abuse and mental illness affect every level of society. As pressures of everyday living have increased, so have the number of people with substance abuse and mental health problems and the cost of treatment. ATAP was created to address the needs of union members arising out of substance abuse and mental health issues as well as related problems. Recognition, treatment, education and cost containment are the areas addressed by ATAP.

Happy Birthday to our Executive Director, Ken Serviss! 🎂

Ken has been the heart of ATAP for nearly 30 years - leading the charge to support mental health and address substance use in the construction industry. Always ready to help others, break the stigma, and lift up his team, Ken’s compassion and commitment have made a lasting impact on workers and families across our trades.

We’re so grateful for his leadership, kindness, and dedication, but most of all, for the friendship he shares with all of us.

Please join us in wishing Ken the happiest of birthdays! 🎉🎂🎈

Here’s to 60 more years of laughter, leadership, and making a difference.

Now that we are aware of obstacles our members face regarding substance use and mental health, let’s explore the solutions.
What Can Be Done
• Normalize Mental Health Conversations: Break the stigma by making mental health part of safety talks, toolbox meetings, and jobsite culture.
• Expand Access to Care: Advocate for more robust mental health benefits in union contracts and employer policies.
• Financial Support During Treatment: Support initiatives like the Jack Dempsey Unity Fund that help members stay in treatment without sacrificing their livelihood.
• Peer Support Networks: Train union members to recognize signs of distress and offer peer-to-peer support.
• Policy Advocacy: Push for legislation that protects workers’ benefits during mental health or substance use treatment.
