Sandia will present next month Financial Well-Being and Beyond, a series of virtual presentations focusing on finances, emotional well-being and family care. Presentations covering a wide variety of topics such as retirement planning, managing stress and resources for putting family first will be offered from July 10-27.

This year’s finale will have in-person events in New Mexico on July 25, 26 and 27, which will also be livestreamed.

The goal for this year’s program is to provide Sandians with resources that empower them on their well-being journey.

“Overall well-being means finding balance among many important aspects of one’s life,” said Benefits senior manager Mary Romero Hart. “Aspects of wellness such as financial health, emotional well-being and family care work in tandem — a healthy mind is connected to a healthy wallet, and so forth.”

Presenters for this year’s events include Fidelity Investments, the Social Security Administration, Edelman Financial Engines, Prudential Financial Inc., Blue Cross and Blue Shield of New Mexico and Optum Employee Assistance Program, as well as Sandia’s HR Solutions, Employee Health Services and Sandia Resources.

All Financial Well-Being and Beyond events are free to staff members.

The Financial Well-Being and Beyond program supports the Labs’ People and Culture Strategy, which aims to maximize the success of Sandia’s people and organizational performance through an intentional focus on Sandia’s workforce capabilities, workforce effectiveness, organizational culture and employee health and well-being.
