This year’s Opening the Door to Mental Health virtual symposium will take place on February 27 and 28, 2024 and is focused on mental health and wellness. This is the sixth year for this event, which is sponsored by the British Columbia Federal Council (BCFC) and organized by the BCFC’s Community of Interest on Mental Health. The theme for this year’s symposium is “'''Nurturing Humanity in the Workplace: Fostering a Culture of Kindness, Respect and Empathy.'''” The program will cover two half-days and include a range of speakers and panels providing their advice, different perspectives and strategies related to mental health, including how we can all focus on kindness, respect, empathy while building psychological safety in the workplace. By prioritizing humanity we empower ourselves and others, extend care to colleagues, reach out and offer support, and listen with an open mind.
