Overview:

This session will address the stigma of mental health in the Workplace. We will sort out the misconceptions of mental health and understand how it applies to everyone! We will dive into what Mental Health Injuries are and how we begin to navigate them for ourselves and for others. We will learn to identify the signs and symptoms and begin to learn how to navigate conversations regarding Mental Health. We will work to understand the importance of Mental Wellbeing in the workplace by breaking down the current recommendations from the U.S. Surgeon General and how it applies to us!
