When:  May 12, 2021 from 12:30 PM to 01:30 PM (ET)

A pandemic, an economic collapse, multiple disasters, mass shootings, and social unrest. Municipal employees face a multitude of challenges that are unlike any encountered in the past. Add to it the uncertainty of what will happen next, and it creates the perfect storm for personal and mental health.

Dealing with depression, anxiety, and suicide. The session will be tailored on things to watch for, how to react, and what to do/not do in dealing with people who are depressed by being quarantined, losing business, home schooling children, etc.

  • What are the tools that managers can use during this time of crisis?
  • What is the problem and how might it affect my community?
  • Are there signs or symptoms we should watch out for?
  • What about our own health?
