Episode 21 RTNT LIVE on CJRU: Mental Health and the Workplace

Radio Totally Normal Toronto, or RTNT for short, is a voice for community mental health; produced by the members and staff of Progress Place, a mental wellness clubhouse in downtown Toronto. Episode 21 was hosted by RTNT's Mathiaus on August 14th, 2019. This month we’re focusing on mental health in the workplace.   It is estimated that 1 in 5 Canadians will suffer from mental illness in their life, and billions are estimated to be lost by employers annually as a result, it is always a pertinent topic.  Let’s get right into our first interview with Oliver who’s representing the Waterfront Business Improvement Association, an employment partner for people living with mental illness. For this segment Oliver was interviewed by Matthew from RTNT. We also will hear the audio presentation of Progress Place's transitional employment program. We hear RTNT's Paul introduce Freta, Ali,  Sara and Mariza.
