 |
Behind the Scenes Requests Industry Participation in Online Survey to Explore Mental Health Needs in a Changing Industry.
The Behind the Scenes Mental Health Initiative was launched in 2019 with an industry-wide survey the results of which guided the development of the tools and resources currently available. The entertainment industry has experienced major changes over the ensuing years including a global pandemic, weather related catastrophes, strikes and work slow-downs, and changing business models, so it’s time to once again ask the industry what initiatives would support their mental health and wellbeing.
The Behind the Scenes Mental Health Initiative has done extensive work in the areas of suicide prevention, bullying and harassment, alcohol and substance misuse, finding qualified therapists, providing easy to navigate resources, Mental Health First Aid training, and reducing stigma. Work has recently been started on initiatives to help people improve their communication skills and to assist them in exploring career expansion or transitions to new careers when work is not plentiful enough.
Your response to the 2025 survey will guide the development of new tools and resources to meet your needs as you navigate a rapidly changing industry. To participate in the survey go to: btslink.org/survey
