GMHEC Well-Being Calendar
Register now for Adult Mental Health First Aid
January 6 @ 8:00 am – February 3 @ 5:00 pm
The purpose of MHFA training is to build an empowered community united around mental health care by educating communities, organizations and induviduals in how to address mental health issues effectively. In MHFA classes, people get a better understanding of how to recognize and offer initial aid to someone who may be experiencing a mental health challenge or oncoming crisis.
Attendees explore how to ask if a person is distressed and how to intervene on their behalf. MHFA courses also spell out a clear, five-step action plan to help individuals connect with helpful professionals and peers. The course also covers community resources available, as access to care is a crucial piece of the puzzle.
This virtual workshop is being offered twice – on February 12th and March 12th.
