AGENDA

WORKSHOP - Mental health in the workplace

Guest speaker, Seia Roots from the Canadian Mental Health Association will be conducting the two hour workshop.

 This workshop is designed to help build comfort in talking about these issues and learning how to respond in a supportive manner to colleagues. It begins by building an understanding of the continuum of mental health and the risk and protective factors that influence our current state of mental health. Fostering a culture of understanding and acceptance of people with mental illness is a foundation to building a psychologically healthy and safe workplace.

We look forward to seeing you on Thursday, June 29^th. Please register by visiting the link:
