The Ohio State University Employee Assistance Program is offering a Mental Health Awareness training program to help OSU employees improve their understanding of mental health. Participants of this training program will learn how to:

  • Identify signs and symptoms of depression, anxiety, and substance abuse
  • Recognize warning signs of suicide
  • Support coworkers and others who may be experiencing mental health difficulties
  • Access treatment and resources available to OSU employees

This event is sponsored by the CFAES Office of Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion as a part of several initiatives to support of neurodiverse individuals and to promote the mental health and wellbeing of the OSU community. The event is free and open to all OSU employees.
