About

On March 16, join us for the first Mental Health Monday of the year as the Calgary Chamber explores psychological health and safety (PH&S) and how workplace conditions, behaviours and practices support mental health and well-being. This session looks beyond interpersonal dynamics to focus on the broader factors that contribute to psychologically healthy and safe workplaces.

Facilitated by Leora Hornstein, Well-being Specialist at Cenovus Energy, the session will share practical insights and real-world perspectives to help leaders and teams better support mental well-being at work. Designed to inform and inspire, this conversation will leave you with a clearer understanding of how everyday actions can contribute to healthier, more supportive workplaces.

 

About Mental Health Mondays

Join us for Mental Health Mondays, a monthly event series dedicated to fostering open, supportive conversations about mental well-being in our community.

In partnership with our Mental Health Pillar Partner, Cenovus, these sessions go beyond the workplace covering a wide range of topics that impact both our professional and personal lives. Each month, a thought leader from one of Calgary’s leading mental health organizations will guide the conversation, share resources and be available to answer your questions. 

This series is also about building a sense of community—whether you’re personally navigating mental health challenges, supporting someone who is, or simply wanting to learn more. Whether you’re a business leader, team member or community partner, you’ll gain valuable tools, insights and connections to strengthen well-being for yourself and those around you. 

Together, let’s build a healthier, more resilient Calgary, because we’re always better together.
