Participants should expect to take away with them important information, a stronger sense of community, and at times, a completely new perspective.

Mental Health First Aid Matters
Most of us would know how to help if we saw someone having a heart attack—we’d start CPR, or at the very least, call 9-1-1. But too few of us would know how to respond if we saw someone having a panic attack or if we were concerned that a friend or co-worker might be showing signs of alcoholism.
Mental Health First Aid (MHFA) takes the fear and hesitation out of starting conversations about mental health and substance use problems by improving understanding and providing an action plan that teaches people to safely and responsibly identify and address a potential mental illness or substance use disorder.
When more people are equipped with the tools they need to start a dialogue, more people can get the help they need. Mental Health First Aiders can even save lives.
Youth MHFA is an evidenced based, public education course designed to teach adults working with adolescents how to recognize signs and symptoms of a developing mental health problem or crisis. In this interactive class, participants learn a five-step action plan and practical skills to assist young people in their lives. The program focuses on de-stigmatizing mental illness and connecting individuals to appropriate resources. Founded in Australia, the program is now worldwide. The National Council for Well Being oversees the implementation of MHFA in the United States.
