EDUCATION AND ADVOCACY  

MWA sources and shares resources with employees to help them establish and maintain a healthy lifestyle. The group hosts events featuring SR employees along with expert speakers and mental health professionals to increase awareness around mental health and wellbeing. Our most recent events focused on Building Belonging in High Performance Teams and Navigating Mental Health Discussions in the workplace. As an ERG, they also champion positive change both in corporate policy and organizational culture and prioritize advocating for employees in need of support.

CONNECTION

Every employee deserves to feel connected to their job and to their coworkers. To that end, MWA gives our employees opportunities to build stronger relationships and a greater sense of belonging both in the office and in hybrid work environments. 

Equity
FUNDRAISING AND SUPPORT

In partnership with HR, MWA identifies opportunities to enhance the benefits offered to our workforce like the identification of a global employee assistance provider for employees in all regions to have direct access to confidential external support when facing personal or work-related problems. 

Senior Director

“I see mental wellness as a critical daily practice for maintaining balance, health, and happiness. Prioritizing my own mental wellness is also a way of caring about others: the quality of my life directly influences my interactions with the people around me.”

Ken Schrock | Senior Director, Spaulding Ridge
