Safety Beyond the Jobsite: How CDA is Addressing Mental Health and Suicide Prevention
At CDA, safety is more than a jobsite priority—it extends to the mental health and well-being of every team member.
This week, we paused all projects to focus on Mental Health and Suicide Prevention, bringing together over 100 employees and contractors for an impactful event.
Evan McDonough, CDA Construction Health & Safety Manager, delivered a keynote presentation on suicide prevention, highlighting the power of awareness and action. Kevin Smith, Wellness Coach with Ramp Health, shared valuable guidance on navigating mental health challenges and accessing support resources.
The day began with breakfast and time to connect, setting the tone for meaningful conversation and learning.
Key Takeaways:
- Lead by example in supporting others
- Seek help when needed
- Utilize available resources
- You are not alone—speak up
Thank you to CDA leadership and our clients for their support of this important initiative and for helping us strengthen a culture where safety and wellness go hand-in-hand.
