The Ohio Suicide Prevention Foundation has provided resources for small business owners regarding mental health in the workplace. View the resource guide here.

From OSPF:

The workplace can be an important location for support designed to improve well-being among adults. Workplace wellness programs can identify those at risk, connect them to treatment, and put in place support to help people reduce and manage stress. Investing in mental health and safety is critical to building solid workplaces, a strong workforce, and strong communities. The Ohio Suicide Prevention Foundation has several resources, and materials including an employer tool-kit that employers and employees can utilize in their workplace. OSPF also offers for free, VitalCog Training which is a workplace specific training about addressing mental health and crisis in the workplace. Employers are encouraged to review these resources and build on mental health strategies that will positively impact well-being, the employers’ bottom line, and our communities.
