Kaiser Permanente Speaker Series: Managing Mental Health and Substance Use During the COVID-19 Pandemic
October 28, 2020 , 3:30 pm to 5:00 pm
Mental health has come to the forefront of our collective consciousness in recent years, and the pandemic has increased the need for these services. When you consider that prior to the pandemic, 45 million American adults have a mental health condition1 and only 39.8% of adults with mental illness in Oregon State and 46.9% of adults with mental illness in Washington State received any form of treatment,2 this is a concern that must be addressed.
Join leaders from Kaiser Permanente as we discuss the intersection of COVID-19, mental health, and substance use. Employers will learn how Kaiser Permanente members can access the mental health and addiction medicine care they need, and how they can help support their team during these difficult times.
After you register for this event, you will receive an invitation and meeting link via email.
