Workplace Mental Health Program
Mental Health First Aid
Mental Health First Aid (MHFA) will help you to support someone who may be experiencing a decline in or crisis with mental health. The MHFA Canada program aims to improve mental health literacy, and provide the skills and knowledge to help people better manage potential or developing mental health problems in themselves, a family member, a friend or a colleague.
Mental Health First Aid Seniors
Mental Health First Aid Seniors is an adaptation of the MHFA Standard course that is intended to increase the capacity of seniors, families (informal caregivers), friends, staff in care settings, and communities to promote mental health in seniors, prevent mental illness and suicide wherever possible in seniors, and intervene early when problems first emerge.
Mental Health First Aid Supporting Youth
A course for adults that equips them to recognize signs that a young person (ages 12-24) may be experiencing a decline in their mental well-being or a mental health or substance use crisis, initiate conversations that encourage them to talk about it, discuss professional and other supports to help with recovery, assist in a mental health or substance use crisis situation, and check in with one’s own mental well-being and take action as needed.
Applied Suicide Intervention Training (ASIST)
A two-day in-person workshop that equips participants (16+) to recognize when someone may be thinking of suicide, and with the skills to provide an intervention and develop a safety plan with the person to connect them to further support.
safeTALK
A four-hour training that equips participants (15+) to be more alert to someone thinking of suicide and help keep them safe by promptly connecting them to further support.
Compassion Fatigue & Burnout Prevention
Compassion Fatigue and Burnout: Often referred to as “the cost of caring”, this 3 hour workshop teaches employees, supervisors and managers about the effects that workplace pressures and on-going exposure to secondary trauma can have on their staff. The course provides an overview of the definition of these terms, teaches participants how to recognize symptoms in themselves or others, discusses risk factors and barriers to receiving help, and utilizes an individualized self care plan to help employees mitigate those effects.
