Mental Health First Aid is a skills-based training course that teaches participants about mental health and substance-use issues. Just as CPR helps assist an individual having a heart attack, Mental Health First Aid helps assist someone experiencing a mental health or substance use-related crisis. In this course participants learn risk factors and warning signs for mental health and addiction concerns, strategies for how to help someone in both crisis and non-crisis situations, and where to turn for help. Participants complete a 2 hour, pre-recorded training prior to the date of the live zoom portion of the training, which is 6 hours long (with a 30-minute lunch break). The appropriate links will be sent to your email at least 1 week prior to the live zoom portion.
