Given the critical importance of mental well-being and the rising challenges of mental health and substance abuse among today's youth, we are proud to offer a Youth Mental Health First Aid certification course.

 

This blended-learning program combines a two-hour self-paced online module with a five-hour virtual instructor-led session via Zoom. The course, taught by certified instructors, is based on a nationally recognized curriculum developed by the National Council for Behavioral Health and Mental Health First Aid. It is designed to equip adults with the knowledge and skills to support youth aged 12-18 in times of mental health crises.

Upon successful completion, participants will receive a three-year certification from Mental Health First Aid. This course holds a $170 value.

To ensure a smooth learning experience, participants must meet the following tech requirements: a reliable email account, consistent internet access, a working webcam or camera, and a microphone. All online assignments must be completed in full prior to attending the virtual session, with no exceptions.

 

Trainings are filled on a first-come, first-served basis. Adults that wish to participate in the activity must register for the event. To secure your spot, full payment of the total amount due is required prior to the registration deadline.

This event will take place via Zoom.
