Non-Medical Leaves

It is the intent of the District to foster a safe and supportive community for all employees, students and visitors. Employees who experience the effects of domestic violence, stalking or sexual assault are encouraged to utilize job-protected leave from the workplace in order to seek and obtain assistance. Please contact Shelbee Mangum at smangum@fwps.org  for a confidential review of your options.
