CLEAR THE FAULT. RESTORE THE CIRCUIT.
In electrical work, a fault is a disruption in the system that prevents power from flowing as it should. Lineworkers identify the problem, address what's wrong, and work to restore service.
That same focus on finding solutions and getting things back on track is at the heart of EPZ Project—only our focus is on the people, not the power.
Lineworkers and skilled tradespeople face demanding schedules, dangerous conditions, and pressures that don't always end when the workday does. When mental health challenges, addiction, or personal crises arise, getting the right help can be difficult.
EPZ Project is working to change that. By helping workers and their families access treatment, overcome financial barriers to care, and find consistent support throughout recovery, we're making sure the people who spend their careers keeping their communities going have someone looking out for them too.
To help skilled tradespeople and their families get the mental health care, addiction treatment, and recovery support they need. We work to remove financial barriers, connect people with qualified treatment providers, and make sure support doesn't end when treatment does.
OUR MISSION
A skilled trades community where looking out for each other doesn't stop at the jobsite. Where asking for help isn't something to be ashamed of, families know where to turn, and getting treatment isn't determined by what someone can afford.
OUR VISION
Look Out for Each Other. The same commitment to keeping each other safe on the job should extend beyond the workday.
No Judgement. Mental health struggles and addiction don't define a person.
Do What We Say. We believe in being honest, following through, and being responsible with the trust and contributions people place in the EPZ Project.
See It Through. Getting someone into treatment is only part of the job. Recovery takes time, and continued support matters.
