LIT MENTAL
WELL-BEING SERIES
Self-care Matters
Since the start of the pandemic, LIT Mental Well-Being was introduced to increase awareness towards mental health issues, equipping youths and young workers with basic psychological first aid and peer support skills, as well as ways to improve the mental well-being support of workers in the workplace.
Young NTUC is part of the Youth Mental Well-Being Network (YMWB), supported by the Ministry of Social and Family Development (MSF), Ministry of Education (MOE) and Ministry of Health (MOH).
WSQ-Certified Training in Peer-to-Peer Mental Well-being Support @ Work
Young NTUC envisions to create a community of certified peer supporters who can be friends, colleagues, peers that individuals can look to if they feel that they are mentally distressed and need a listening ear, or support in the workplace.
In support of the Tripartite Advisory on Mental Well-Being at Workplaces, Young NTUC and NTUC LearningHub have joined hands in curating a first-in-market WSQ-Certified Training in Peer-to-Peer Mental Well-being Support @ Work. This initiative is also supported by the Workplace Safety and Health Council (WSHC).
Look forward to a curriculum that has been crafted by trained professionals from the Singapore Anglican Community Services, in consultation with the Agency of Integrated Care (AIC) and Institute of Mental Health (IMH).
