This is a free, interactive, self-directed eLearning course provided to you by OpenCircle through LifeWorks. Click on the modules below to sign up for each building block for positive mental health.

This program is designed to help employees expand their awareness of mental health so they can maintain their own mental health and offer a bridge to support for co-workers experiencing a mental disorder or temporary mental health problem.

Here’s what’s in it for you:

according to the Mental Health Commission of Canada, a person’s mental health fluctuates across a four-phase continuum. Learn about the behaviours exhibited and appropriate actions to take at each phase of the continuum
