SUMMARY:Mind the Gap: Addressing the Mental Health “Echo Pandemic: in Ontario
DESCRIPTION:Join the South Niagara Chambers of Commerce for an insightful webinar hosted by the Ontario Chamber of Commerce (OCC)\, which will feature expert panelists from the community mental health sector and the business community and delve into the profound and enduring mental health and addictions impacts of the COVID-19 pandemic on Ontario’s communities\, small businesses\, and health care system. Termed a mental health “echo pandemic” by experts\, the aftermath of the crisis continues to cast a long shadow over the province. \nThe expert panel will examine the disproportionate impact on Ontario’s small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs)\, frontline workers\, and underserved populations and the lingering challenge posed by the increased demand for mental health and addiction-related support in the aftermath of the public health crisis. The conversation will also feature a discussion about the practical solutions for SMEs to navigate the growing mental health and well-being needs of their staff and how these effects directly influence business resiliency. \nDon’t miss this opportunity to gain valuable insights\, actionable strategies\, and collaborative solutions. Join us as we work towards building a resilient and supportive environment for businesses and communities in the wake of the mental health “echo pandemic.” \nSpeakers Include: \nCamille Quenneville – CEO\, Canadian Mental Health Association\, Ontario \nDr. Renata M. Villela – MD\, FRCPC\, FAPA\, Section on Psychiatry Chair\, Ontario Medical Association\, and Co-Chair\, Coalition of Ontario Psychiatrists \nOlivier Pagé – Director\, Group Disability Management Operations\, Medavie Blue Cross \nSurkhab Peerzada – Director\, Community Wellness\, Ontario Federation of Indigenous Friendship Centres \nSimranzeet Singh Vig – Senior Policy Analyst\, Ontario Chamber of Commerce
