Workplace Mental Health and Well-being: Connection and Community

Virtual Convening

We spend a third of our life at work and yet workplace relationships are the most neglected. Research shows that investing in our relationships at work increases an overall sense of well-being, belonging, and improves teamwork. All of these are important elements to prevent burnout, especially in the human services sector, where workers are constantly exposed to others' experiences of trauma and adversity. So why do we neglect these workplace relationships? In some cases, it's because the pace of the outcomes driven workplaces only leaves time for transactional interactions between peers. In this workshop, we’ll identify some of the barriers to creating inclusive culture. Case studies from Create Forward’s work in cultivating Thriving Cultures will offer practical strategies for strengthening community, connection, and belonging at work.

Best Practices for Reflective & Supportive Supervision

FPWA 40 Broad Street, 5th Floor, New York, NY, United States

Supervisors across human service settings face many challenges in a changing and dynamic system of care. As the key interface between organizational policies and practices and direct service professionals, supervisors wear many hats and struggle to balance their complex roles designed to promote the mission of the organization and support the success and compassion satisfaction of their supervisees.

This workshop is designed to provide supervisors with practical and concrete approaches to support their supervisees by: 1) providing supportive and reflective supervision, 2) supporting professional development, 3) managing performance difficulties requiring “courageous conversations”, 4) managing levels of emotional stress and 5) creating a trusting and physically, psychologically and culturally safe work environment that collectively increases compassion satisfaction and workforce retention.  

Registration is required.

FPWA has recently been receiving claims from members of the public emailing and calling our offices that individuals posing as FPWA agents have contacted them claiming that in order for the recipient to claim grant monies from FPWA they must first send the agent personal information, a cell phone number, gift card codes or money.

FPWA does not use social media (Facebook, Twitter, etc.), text messages or direct phone contact to solicit, review, or make awards. FPWA staff will not call or message you requesting money in order to be eligible for an award.

Further, FPWA does not make grants directly to individuals. FPWA works with its member agency partners and other reputable community-based organizations to direct support to families and individuals in our community.

If you or someone you know has been contacted by someone posing to be an “FPWA Agent” or staff person requesting money to release a grant, please do the following:
