Mental Health First Aid (MHFA) Workshop
Mental Health First Aid is a training course that teaches participants how to recognize, understand, and respond to signs of mental health and substance use challenges, including crisis situations.
Similar to how CPR helps in a medical emergency, Mental Health First Aid provides practical skills and an action plan for supporting someone who may be struggling and connecting them with appropriate help.
Please note, this program is NOT ACPE accredited. After completing the pre-course work (approximately 2 hours) and the full day workshop, participants will earn a MHFA certification valid for 3 years.
