Champions of Mental Health and Well-Being
What does the term “champion” mean?
Champions are people who, regardless of their role in the organization, promote positive mental health and well-being in the workplace. They are individuals who are passionate about helping colleagues understand that mental health is an important issue for everyone, and it’s okay to talk about it! Champions are also individuals who speak up and challenge false stereotypes and myths, as well as challenge language that can be hurtful and disrespectful.
Mental health champions help to support the work of the Mental Health and Well-Being Strategy. They see themselves working alongside the Mental Health and Well-Being Working Group in promoting awareness, engaging in mental health conversations and action.
