Mental health at work

Create a culture of mental wellbeing with NAMI Chicago’s Workplace Wellness training and consulting services.

Navigating mental health in the workplace

Mental health is always present—we don’t check our needs at the door during work. But employers aren’t always equipped to support their employees’ mental health, particularly in a post-COVID 19 era when many people work remotely.

NAMI Chicago recognizes the unique challenges of supporting employee mental health in the workplace. Our Workplace Wellness training programs and consulting services give you the education and tools to navigate challenges like:

Working in a stressful environment
Workplace conflicts
Serving a high-need population
Suicide in the workplace

Employees experiencing personal hardships or loss

Bring NAMI Chicago to your workplace

NAMI Chicago’s Workplace Wellness practice provides training programs and consulting services to employers and their employees.

Training programs

During these two-hour sessions, employees gain new skills to improve mental wellbeing in the workplace. Each training is customized to your organization’s interests and needs. Topics include:

Fundamentals of Workplace Wellness. Prepare employees to assess their wellbeing and implement tools that support their productivity, morale, and wellness.

Crisis Intervention and De-Escalation. Employees learn the signs and symptoms in adults and children that may imply crisis, and how to moderate the situation.

Resilience Building. Help employees identify work-related adversity and enable them to adapt and bounce back from burnout.

Your leadership team works directly with a NAMI Chicago team member to discover and recommend custom solutions for leadership, policies, practices, and culture on employee mental health and wellbeing.
