Learn about your free well-being resources during Mental Health Awareness Month
This May we recognize Mental Health Awareness Month. It's an important reminder that taking care of your mental well-being is just as essential as your physical health. In the fast pace of work and life, we can sometimes overlook the small ways we can support our own mental health—whether it's taking a moment to breathe, setting healthy boundaries or simply checking in with how we're feeling. Self-care isn’t selfish; it’s necessary.
As we continue to build a workplace that prioritizes mental health, we want to remind you that there are free resources available. That is why we are hosting a free lunch and learn for employees on May 28. The focus will be on WCD’s Employee Assistance Program (EAP), a confidential counseling service available free of charge to all full-time and part-time staff plus all members of your household.
Through the EAP, free and confidential support is available 24 hours a day, seven days a week for a variety of issues. These include, but are not limited to:
The Lunch and Learn will take place on May 28 from noon to 1 p.m. in the Baird Center North Building, Room N206. Anyone interested in attending should RSVP by May 21.
If you can’t make it and still want to know more about the free resources available to you, please check out https://fei.mylifeexpert.com/ or reach out to Jamie Bauer at jbauer@wcd.org.
