This interactive workshop will focus on empowering team members at every level to go beyond "See Something, Say Something" to become a part of the solution of real-world concerns. The for the general public, the phrase "mental health" conjures up images from One Flew Over the Cuckoo's Nest and Silence of the Lamb's which only adds to the stigma that millions of Americans live with every day. Persons with mental illness (nationally, 19.86% of adults), substance use disorders (nationally, 7.74% of adults), and thoughts of suicide (nationally, 4.58% of adults - FYI that's more than 11 million adults) walk the halls of our schools and work place every day. Participants will learn key signs to identify when someone is struggling as well as relevant avenues for help before a crisis occurs. Mental health IS a team effort, so empower yourself and empower others!
