Support Staff is a community of hospitality professionals working alongside mental health professionals, and community organizers to change the structures of the hospitality industry, by breaking down the stigmas surrounding mental health, giving employers tools to better support their employees, and giving hourly employees tools to better advocate for their well-being.
The hospitality industry relies heavily on the emotional labor of its employees, which leads to the inevitable dehumanization of the individuals within this industry. It is an incredibly unsustainable business model, and has led to many untimely, and preventable, deaths.
With help from donors like you, we can start to change the culture of the hospitality industry to make it a safer place for all facets of hospitality workers.
