Mental Health First Aid: Youth

Mental Health First Aid is an evidence based course that gives non-behavioral health specialists the skills to help someone who is in emotional crisis.

Participants will learn a single  five-step  strategy that includes assessing risk, respectfully listening to and supporting the individual in crisis, and identifying   appropriate professional help and other supports.

Attendees are also introduced to risk factors and warning signs for mental health or substance use problems, and they engage in experiential activities that build understanding of the impact of illness on individuals and families and learn about evidence-supported treatment and self-help strategies.

Registration is required — please click here to sign up.

This is offered in partnership with the Bradley Learning Exchange.
