w/ Dusty Sparks, NAMI SW

Presenters

  • Susan Peng-Cowan

Description

This course explores how everyone in a workplace—not just supervisors—can help create a StigmaFree culture that supports mental health, connection, and wellbeing. Participants will learn practical ways to reduce stress, communicate with care, use non-stigmatizing language, and connect people to supports and resources. By prioritizing mental health as a shared responsibility, programs can strengthen trust, engagement, retention, and overall productivity.

Come join Dusty Sparks, Adult Education Program Manager at NAMI (National Alliance on Mental Illness) SW for a presentation and discussion emphasizing how supportive practices and policies can reduce stress, improve functioning, and help employees do their best work.
