Webinars explore mental-health implications of COVID

While the COVID-19 pandemic has devastated physical and economic health throughout the nation, it is likely also having an impact on mental health.

A two-part series of webinars called Life Interrupted will examine those implications with its first segment Thursday, June 25, at 9 a.m. and the concluding segment on Thursday, July 9, also at 9 a.m.

The BizWest series harnesses the expertise of human resources and mental health experts in the region to discuss what might be happening to the mental health of residents during the pandemic.
