Mental Health First Aid (MHFA) is an educational training that teaches participants how to offer support when someone is developing a mental health condition or experiencing a mental health crisis. We offer various versions of MHFA to address the needs of your community. You will learn:
- How to identify signs, symptoms and risk factors of mental health and substance use conditions
- Information on depression, anxiety, trauma, psychosis and substance use
- A 5-step action plan on how to assist someone in both crisis and non-crisis situations
All MHFA participants receive a 3-year certification through the National Council for Behavioral Health and a MHFA manual.
