This training aims to support a young person experiencing a decline in their mental health or experiencing a mental health crisis or emergency. Just as physical first aid is administered to an injured person before medical treatment can be obtained, MHFA is given until appropriate treatment is found or until the crisis is resolved.\nDuring this 14 hour training, participants will gain awareness about common mental health problems, gain the skills to engage a young person who’s in distress in a conversation aimed to connect them to appropriate supports. Additionally, participants will learn about crisis intervention strategies, resources in their communities and self-care practices.\nThis course is an additional two hours in length in comparison to the Mental Health First Aid: Basic course, and covers additional topics such as eating disorders and deliberate self-injury.\nDisorders Covered Include:\n\n\nMental Health & Stigma\n\n\nSubstance-Related Disorders\n\n\nMood Related Disorders\n\n\nDeliberate Self Injury\n\n\nAnxiety and Trauma-Related Disorders\n\n\nEating Disorders\n\n\nPsychotic Disorders\n\n\nParticipant Outcomes\n\n\nIncreased awareness of signs and symptoms of the most common mental health problems\n\n\nDecreased stigma related to mental health\n\n\nIncreased confidence interacting with individuals experiencing a mental health problem or crisis\n\n\nIncreased help provided to individuals in crisis or experiencing a mental health emergency\n\n\n_____________________________________________________________\nPLEASE NOTE:\n• Seats are limited for in-person & sponsored courses; please register early!
