A large contingent from ArcelorMittal Dofasco was on hand at the 10th annual A Mental Health Morning supporting mental health and addiction care at St. Joseph’s Healthcare Hamilton.
Our company has been a proud presenting sponsor of this important event each year. After two years of virtual events, the breakfast was held in person Feb. 2 at Michelangelo’s Banquet Centre. Guests were also able to join online.
The event’s keynote speaker was bestselling author and Hamilton resident Jesse Thistle, who shared his remarkable journey from homelessness, addiction and incarceration to award-winning writer, assistant professor at York University and proud husband and father.
Nesha Gibson, Vice President People and Culture, brought greetings on behalf of our company before introducing Thistle.
“I want to reinforce why this event is so important to us at ArcelorMittal Dofasco and why we continue to support St. Joseph’s and this cause. First, our longstanding belief is: Our product is steel. Our strength is people. That means our No. 1 priority is their safety, health and wellness. That’s both mind and body.”
