Mental Health First Aid

Mental Health First Aid offers a concrete action plan to help someone in crisis connect with appropriate professional, peer, and self-help care. The course will provide useful skills in both personal and professional settings for all employees. The course can be delivered in either one 8-hour session or two 4-hour sessions. Exercises can be adapted to address the common scenarios you encounter.

We offer a variety of course models including:
