This distinguished recognition, bestowed by Mental Health America (MHA), signifies PDG’s unwavering commitment to fostering a mentally healthy workplace environment.

Rooted in MHA’s extensive legacy of research and advocacy, the Bell Seal sets a comprehensive benchmark for evaluating employer practices, encompassing the entire spectrum of the employee experience.
