Communicating with Farmers Under Stress Webinar

An upcoming Penn State University Extension Service webinar titled “Communicating with Farmers Under Stress” is scheduled for February 24, 2025. The webinar will help participants learn the signs of stress and how to help. The program is designed for agriculture industry professionals, loan officers, family members of farmers, and concerned citizens. The webinar will help participants build awareness of the stressors affecting farmers and their families and recognize the signs and symptoms of anxiety and warning signs of suicide. They’ll learn to access, approach, and assist farmers who are showing changes in their mental health and help access local, state, and national resources. The webinar is free, but attendees must register before the start of the webinar to get the access link. Those who register also get a link to watch the recording of the program.
