Mental disorders are the largest contributor to disease burden in North America, but the developer community and those who employ us are afraid to face the problem head-on. In this talk, we'll examine the state of mental health awareness in the developer workplace, why most developers feel it isn't safe to talk about mental health, and what we can do to change the culture and save lives. Attendees will leave with 5 things they can do to make their workplace safer for those dealing with mental health disorders.

I've never heard of OSMI project before and it was a great introduction for me. I'm sure Ed is doing great job to help people in tech to struggle with their mental problems. Very much appreciated!
