VitalCog: Suicide Prevention in the Workplace
About this Event
Did you know individuals with depression miss an average of 4.8 days of work each year and experience 11.5 days of reduced work productivity? What if you could create a “safe space” for dialogue regarding workplace mental health challenges? Participants will learn the skills needed to proactively address the early warning signs of mental health and suicide in the workplace.
