Have you always wanted to be able to support someone experiencing a mental health challenge, but never know quite what to say or do? If so, then Mental Health First Aid is for you! During this training, you'll learn how to identify, understand and respond to signs of mental health and substance use challenges among adults. You’ll build skills and confidence you need to reach out and provide initial support to those who are struggling. You’ll also learn how to help connect them to appropriate support.
