“Not acknowledging that millions are dealing with mental health conditions is costing an enormous amount both in terms of dollars and cents and, more importantly, people's lives."
Arianna Huffington
Mental Health at Work Mini-Conference, May 2018
"I personally would like to thank Mind Share Partners for all of your support of this ERG and community from the very beginning when we were unsure, driven, and quite a bit scared on launching something that would make us so vulnerable. You provided resources and insight that gave us direction, hope, and reminded us that what we were creating would matter to our peers. To which, you were right. I'm thankful for Mind Share Partners, what you stand for and all that you're creating in this new area of diversity, inclusion, and belonging."
"After the Mind Share Partners conference, we created our own Mental Health Fund, since our health insurance excludes it, and talked about it so our team knew we had their back and they'd be covered for emergency care for suicidal thoughts, etc.
It's a start. Stigma runs deep. It's good that [Mind Share Partners] is helping workplaces talk about it!"

Program Overview
Refocus on employee well-being in today’s rapidly changing workplace.
As of this year, 90% of U.S. workers report experiencing mental health challenges—the highest rate we've seen. At the same time, organizations are seeing a rise in mental health-related leaves, declining employee engagement, and ongoing uncertainty reshaping work across industries.
We also know that many HR professionals leading employee well-being efforts are overstretched and facing burnout themselves. That’s why we're bringing back Mind Share Partners Institute this Fall. Our flagship program is designed to support and equip those doing this important work.
This interactive, cohort-based program is designed for HR professionals and people managers, ERG champions, and nonprofit professionals. You'll gain the tools, a framework, and a support network to overcome your current challenges and create real, sustained change for workplace well-being.
What makes this program stand out is that you have the opportunity to workshop with peers across different industries, alongside this year's expert facilitator. You'll generate new, proven ideas that you’ll be ready to implement at your organization when the course is done.
Program Format: Five interactive, 2-hour virtual sessions
Dates and time for live training sessions: 11am PT on September 11 and 25, October 9 and 23, and November 6.
