AGC Mental Health & Suicide Prevention Forum

Date: Apr 16 - Apr 17, 2025
Venue: Online event

The Role of Peer Support in Critical Incident Stress Management

This presentation will focus on expanding and refining the typical critical incident response to better meet the individual needs of workers.  We know not everyone will participate in a Critical Incident Stress Management (CISM) group; some people need one-to-one support.  We also know that many people will need ongoing or “sporadic” support following the incident.  Trauma and the resolution of trauma is not linear. Trauma may not be resolved in a single group session, and many people will not even “feel the effects” until some time has passed.  

This webinar will focus on a novel approach to critical incident response that combines classic critical incident stress debriefing strategies with long-term (specially trained and supervised) peer support.

The AGC Mental Health & Suicide Prevention Forum meets virtually on a quarterly basis to gather and share information, resources, and best practices among stakeholders in the construction industry. Open to all AGC members and chapters, the goal of these forums is to provide a safe space where construction industry stakeholders can come together to share success stories, discuss challenges, and seek or share resources and best practices.
