What is stigma? How does it play out at work? What are the benefits of making workplaces more recovery-friendly? This workshop explores these questions and provides helpful resources.
Support is needed for mental health and substance use issues, especially at work. Stigma is the biggest barrier to recovery from behavioral health challenges, and a key contributor to harmful workplace policies and behaviors that result in loss of money, productivity, and employee retention. Addressing stigma at work costs less in dollars and stress.
Join us to learn how to combat stigma at your workplace and leave with a toolkit of local mental health and recovery resources, and peer support options for your employees.
Participation in this workshop will count toward your Recovery Friendly Workplace certifications and recertifications for current partners, and in addition, .5 CPRS CEU hours are available from On Our Own of Maryland.
