From Awareness to Action: Driving Engagement in Mental Health Benefits

From Awareness to Action: Driving Engagement in Mental Health Benefits

Even the best-designed mental health benefits only make an impact if employees use them. Yet many traditional programs, like EAPs, suffer from low awareness and engagement. As stress and burnout rise, organizations have an opportunity to create benefits strategies that employees actually connect with and trust.

This interactive panel will explore how HR and benefits leaders can drive meaningful engagement with mental health offerings—turning underutilized programs into high-impact drivers of well-being, performance, and retention.

We’ll then learn from Stephen Sokoler, Founder & CEO of Journey and Bill Tompkins, Vice President, Total Rewards & Payroll for MillerKnoll. 

Join us to discover how to turn mental health benefits into a trusted, widely used resource that fuels both employee well-being and organizational success.

Learning Objectives: 

  • Proven ways to increase employee awareness and uptake of mental health benefits
  • Why traditional EAPs fall short on engagement and what works better
  • Practical steps to design benefits that deliver both employee well-being and measurable business ROI.
  • How to foster a culture of openness that normalizes mental health support
  • The business impact: higher engagement, reduced absenteeism, and stronger retention
