We are doing all we can to provide you with the information and guidance you need to navigate these challenging times.  You can find resources HERE on our special COVID-19 home page.  And for help in selecting a digital mental health solution to meet the needs of your employee population, consult our Digital Tools and Solutions for Mental Health: An Employer’s Guide.

The current crisis lays bare the shortcomings of this country’s mental healthcare system, and we’re helping to address these issues by playing a leadership role in the Path Forward on Mental Health and Substance Use, a national five-year initiative you can read about HERE.

Join us, as together with partners and stakeholders, we embark on the road to better mental health and wellbeing for all of us.
