SPFA Launches Campaign to Prevent Suicide and Substance Abuse in Construction Industry
STAFFORD, Va. — The Spray Polyurethane Foam Alliance (SPFA) announced a partnership with Cal Beyer, CWP and CSDZ to provide key education and resources to both spray foam and construction industry participants on suicide and substance abuse prevention.
Fueled in part by ongoing stressors including the pandemic, as well as the Center for Disease Control’s (CDC) assessment of the construction industry having the second highest rate of suicide in the United States at 53.3 per 100,000 workers, the SPFA Board of Directors initiated its campaign to assist the industry. As part of the program, the SPFA on Nov. 18 will host an informative webinar led by Beyer, which will be accessible at no cost to all in the construction industry.
