Avoid Avoidance: Effective Coping & Your Mental Health for Fundraising Professionals

Program Overview

In this session participants will embark on a dynamic exploration of coping strategies essential for nurturing mental well-being. 26% of professional fundraisers have taken time off because of stress, anxiety, or depression resulting from their roles (Civil Society, 2024) as such addressing these challenges head-on is crucial for maintaining a healthy and productive workforce. Through interactive discussions and practical exercises, we will delve into the art of effective coping and its profound impact on mental health outcomes featuring common stressors, challenges, and opportunities fundraising professionals might face in the course of their careers.
