Everyone experiences symptoms of mental illness. Too frequently, the response to such symptoms in the workplace is confusion, fear, judgment, avoidance and outright rejection. Those responses lead to a worsening of symptoms and a deterioration of performance. Join the Faculty and Staff Assistance Program for a webinar designed to reduce the stigma associated with mental illness and to promote ways of supporting one another in the workplace. The session will address signs and symptoms of distress and effective ways of providing support for co-workers. The training also will include exercises to develop these skills.
