Mental Health First Aid is like CPR for mental health.
This 8 hour certification (cost is $150 pp) is good for 3 years through the National Council for Mental Wellbeing.
Learn practical skills for how to recognize and get help for someone experiencing a mental health challenge.
We cover:
Early signs and symptoms, worsening signs and symptoms, and crisis situations.
How to respond to someone experiecing panic, depression, psychosis, non suicidal self injury.

This may be our last class for the calendar year. If you or someone in your groups or organization can benefit from this course (I think everyone can!)
