Event Description:

How is it going?  Maybe you feel things aren’t going well.  Perhaps someone you know, even you, feels stressed – overwhelmed, depressed, demoralized or feeling trapped.  Maybe there have been dark thoughts and feelings of hopelessness, anxiety, or desperation in a life you know. Learn the signs of distress or depression, and learn more about suicide.  Learn about options for seeking help for someone you know or perhaps for yourself.  There are things you and they can do! Learn from an expert on how to get a handle on workplace and daily challenges. Also, get refreshed on the ethical obligations for yourself and your colleagues in this and other areas.
