Overview

A two-part Workforce Wellness webinar series, in collaboration with STAR², explore the role creativity plays in advancing employee well-being at health centers. The inclusion of art and other creative endeavors in the workplace can serve as a respite for the ongoing mental health struggles–such as moral distress, moral injury, and compassion fatigue–that remain prevalent among health center staff.

This webinar series will explore the intersection of art and healing as a key aspect of building a resilient, empowered, and engaged workforce and provide firsthand accounts from various health centers that embraced creativity as a key part of their organization’s culture of wellbeing.
