Coping With Chronic Illness  
     
 

The emotional and physical aspects of a chronic illness can magnify everyday work issues, and make them seem overwhelming. If not properly understood or managed, these unresolved issues can erode work confidence and relationships with co-workers, negatively affect work performance, and compound the affects of illness. In this workshop, we will explore some of the challenges of working with a chronic illness, and identify some of the resources, tools, and support available to you.
