The National Institute of Building Sciences' Building Innovation Podcast recently won a Silver w3 Award for the Season 1 episode, "Mental Health Crisis in Construction."

Receiving thousands of entries annually from across the globe, the w3 Awards honors outstanding social media marketing and content, websites, online marketing and advertising, mobile sites and apps, online video, podcasts, and emerging tech.

The construction industry is facing a mental health crisis, with rates of mental health issues and suicide rising.

In this podcast episode, The B1M Founder Fred Mills and Sasha Reed, Senior Director of Industry Transformation with Procore Technologies, join host Johnny Fortune to discuss Get Construction Talking. This initiative aims to raise awareness, provide resources, and create a culture of open conversation around mental health in the industry.

NIBS is grateful to highlight this important initiative alongside The B1M and Procore Technologies, which have partnered to support Get Construction Talking and encourage businesses and individuals to get involved.

Together, we can achieve the long-term vision to improve mental health in construction and prioritize mental well-being alongside physical safety.
