Making Suicide Prevention a Health and Safety Priority
New Name. Same Great Experience.
Construction Mental Health & Wellbeing Conference
We're excited to announce the 5th Annual Construction Mental Health & Wellbeing Conference being held in Portland, Oregon from February 23-26, 2026.
Celebrating our 5th Anniversary, we're updating our name and logo this year to reflect our vision of the future, but our purpose remains the same. To build a sense of community among the construction industry that leverages the lived experience of survivors to prevent suicide and overdoses, while promoting mental health, addiction recovery and overall wellbeing. The 2026 theme, "Moving from Surviving to Thriving," sets our course for uplifting the industry from a place of community, strength, and resilience.

Welcome…
Construction Working Minds was established to increase industry awareness, provide valuable resources and create a network that seeks to let people know:
Suicide affects everyone and we have a shared responsibility to prevent it.
It is courageous to reach out, suicide is preventable.
You (an individual in crisis, a supervisor, a workplace) are not alone – lots of resources exist to help you through a suicide crisis.
Our website has been designed to inspire hope and provide a collaboration portal that offers practical tools that are easily understood. We value the science and the stories of suicide prevention and combine both to guide us in providing positive and impactful resources.
Let's aspire to a zero suicide mindset for construction because no one should die in isolation and despair.
