CANCELED — Kaiser Permanente Speaker Series — Understanding mental health care options
April 22, 2020, 8:30 am to 10:30 am
FreeMental health has come to the forefront of our collective consciousness in recent years. It’s a reoccurring topic of conversation in the news, at the dinner table, and one that is of growing concern with employers. When you consider that over 45 million American adults have a mental health condition1 and only 44.4% of adults with mental illness in Washington State receive any form of treatment,2 this is a concern that must be addressed.
Join us for a breakfast meeting where you’ll learn about Kaiser Permanente’s care services for mental health and what employers can do to support their employees who are struggling with depression, anxiety, or other mental or emotional issues.
Brokers are encouraged to extend an invitation to clients for this discussion. Complimentary breakfast will be served. Free parking will be available.
Schedule:
8:30 – 9 a.m.: Registration and breakfast
9 – 10 a.m.: Presentation and Q&A
10 – 10:30 a.m.: Networking
