Mental Health Awareness Month
May is Mental Health Awareness month & community organizations, Don’t Clock Out & Introspective Spaces are collaborating with Riot Healers on merch, in person & virtual events throughout the month!
Healthcare workers need community removed from their institutions that acknowledge their shared meaning & collective struggles inside & outside of their roles.
Join us for our upcoming events and stay tuned for resources to support healthcare worker mental health.

Moral Distress in Healthcare Webinar (Virtual)
