Youth Mental Health First Aid Training

November 14, 2023 @ 8:00 am - 1:30 pm

Sometimes, first aid isn’t

a bandage,

or CPR,

or the Heimlich,

or calling 911.

Sometimes, first aid is YOU!

 

Someone you know could be experiencing a mental health

challenge or crisis. YOU CAN HELP THEM.

 

You are more likely to encounter someone — friend, family member,

co-worker, neighbor, or member of the community — in an emotional or

mental crisis than someone having a heart attack. Mental Health First Aid

teaches a five-step action plan to offer initial help to people with the signs

and symptoms of a mental illness or in a crisis, and connect them with the

appropriate professional, peer, social, or self-help care. Anyone can

take the eight-hour Mental Health First Aid course — first

responders, students, teachers, leaders of faith communities,

human resources professionals, and caring citizens.

 

Sometimes, the best first aid is you.

Take the course, save a life, strengthen

your community.
