Do you know how to help a youth in crisis or struggling with mental
health? Join us for Youth Mental Health First Aid and learn how to
confidently support youth facing mental health or substance use
challenges. This training equips you with a 5-step action plan and
practical tools to make a real difference in a young person's
life.
Youth Mental Health First Aid is designed to teach
parents, family members, caregivers, teachers, school staff, peers,
neighbors, health and human services workers, and other caring
citizens how to help an adolescent (age 12-18) who is experiencing a
mental health or addictions challenge or is in crisis. The course
introduces common mental health challenges for youth, reviews typical
adolescent development, and teaches a 5-step action plan for how to
help young people in both crisis and non-crisis situations. Topics
covered include anxiety, depression, substance use, disorders in which
psychosis may occur, disruptive behavior disorders (including AD/HD),
and eating disorders.
