Reach out and grab a Helping Hand!

Posted September 6, 2024

In case you weren’t aware, as an industry, construction workers have some of the highest rates of suicide.  Additionally, we suffer with mental health challenges and substance abuse, often alone, due to stigma, fear, or the culture of being too tough to not figure it out on our own.   We no longer have to do it alone.  The IUPAT’s Helping Hands has created a recovery night for members and their families to attend on Thursday October 3, 2024, in San Leandro @ 5:30pm. Your mental and physical health is our priority, and it should be yours as well. Often, we get caught up in life and forget about taking care of ourselves, which is important to yourself and your family. Come out and join us to get things rolling and move the needle forward towards becoming mentally stronger and starting to control any issues we have and put our struggles behind us. Everyone has issues of some sort, and this is a positive way to get them out in the open and start to heal. We no longer have to do it alone.  Please make sure to RSVP to James Boster at (925) 409-1525
