  Program Title:  Mental Health Tips for
  Association Staff and Members

  The construction industry is one of the best industries out there, with some of the best individuals making up the industry. Although very rewarding it has been taboo to talk about what is responsible for taking the lives at a higher rate than anything else in the construction industry, suicide. 

  With the historical demographics of the industry taken in to account, it’s no wonder there has been a stigma that we can’t talk about what’s troubling us, our feelings, etc…

  Since 2019 AGCMO has been working to break that STIGMA, by having the courage and compassion, through education and training to embrace the conversation. Our focus has been identifying warning signs, how to listen and respond, how to start a conversation and identify resources available to the work force; to instill HOPE, that You Are Not Alone.
  
  Attendees will come away with:
  

  • An overview of the current situation related to mental health and suicides in America 

  • The costs related to implementing a staff or member program will be discussed and resources will be shared.  

  • Tips will also be shared related to best practices for implementation and some easy next steps you can take.

  Program Title: You Can't Make this $#!T Up!

  Do you have a unique challenge, harrowing tale, or timely take away you would like to share with the group? Bring your most challenging situations to share in a confidential forum of your peers where we can help you find solutions. 

  There are many unexpected situations that arise in association management, but our SLSAE community has a depth and wealth of collective experience to help each of us deal with those situations.  We will begin with a few brief tales to warm up and then split into smaller groups to share our challenges or lend an ear and potential tangible solutions.
