Just as CPR helps you assist an individual having a heart attack, Mental Health First Aid helps you assist someone experiencing a mental health or substance-use crisis. In the MHFA course, you 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.
We will be hosting this training virtually on November 15th from 9:00-3:30. Participants will also be asked to complete 2 hours of pre-work before the training. To sign up please fill out the form linked below, the deadline to do so is October 30th. If you have any questions please email wellness@jcu.edu.
