Why Attend

Disasters and crises don't just affect infrastructure—they deeply impact people. As HR professionals and organizational leaders, you're often on the frontlines of employee wellbeing. This free webinar, presented by the Kentucky Community Crisis Response Team (KCCRT), is designed to help KYSHRM members and HR leaders better understand behavioral health preparedness and support mental health before, during, and after a crisis.

Topics include:

  • Behavioral Health Preparedness: How to proactively prepare for disasters and critical incidents from a psychological perspective. Learn how trauma impacts the workforce and how your organization can respond with empathy and resilience.
  • Understanding 988 & Crisis Support: Explore how the 988 Suicide & Crisis Lifeline functions, when and how to refer employees, and how to integrate it into your workplace mental health strategy.
  • HR’s Role in Crisis Awareness: Gain practical insight into what HR professionals can do to recognize early warning signs of distress, create supportive environments, and respond effectively in times of crisis.

This session is designed to strengthen your organization's emergency response with a human-centered approach—and ensure your people are supported every step of the way.
