Helping Hands

Posted May 18, 2024

Did you know that the Construction Industry has the 2nd highest rate of suicide in the country? Our jobs are stressful and there has always been a stigma around asking for help. We need to change that for ourselves and our family’s sakes.

DC16 offers the helping hands program. You can reach out directly to James Boster with any mental health or substance abuse issues you or a family member maybe having. It is all confidential. Our insurance also covers the Beat It program. Reaching out to James at jamesb@dc16iupat.org is the best way to get directed to the services that best suit you. If you yourself does not need this information, pass it on to someone who does.
