Goal
In collaboration with the Johns Hopkins Education and Research Center (ERC) for Occupational Safety and Health, we, the John Hopkins P.O.E Total Worker Health® Center in Mental Health, will be hosting an interactive, Hybrid (in person and virtual) Fall Summit, the Mental Health in the Workplace Summit. This is a regional summit oriented to local stakeholders and will focus on workplace culture, peer support, communication about mental health, and burnout, among other topics. We welcome those interested in workforce mental health to join.
The goal of this free, regionally focused Summit is to engage with local stakeholders through lectures on relevant workplace mental health topics while also offering worker populations of various industry sectors an opportunity to provide information on the barriers and facilitators to occupational mental health and well-being through interactive sessions. The information gathered during the Summit will be used to help direct future P.O.E. center projects, educational material development, and other resources on key areas identified to address the mental health needs of essential worker populations in the region.
