Our most recent town hall, held earlier this week, focused on mental health and well-being in Extension. During this informal conversation, a representative from the Employee Assistance Program shared information about many resources available via EPA. Learn more in this summary about Mental Health Resources for Employees.
Our colleagues also shared about mental health-related projects they are working on and some of the resources that are available for our employees and clientele. The attached Extension Mental Health Resources summary contains information that may be helpful for yourself or a client who asks about mental health resources or seems like they may need some support.
Kudos again to our OSU Extension professionals who work to address mental health issues with our peers, colleagues, and community partners. There are many ways in which our teams help all Ohioans with these concerns. If you need other resources or additional information, contact Bridget Britton, Extension field specialist, behavioral health, at britton.191@osu.edu.
