YOU CAN BE THE DIFFERENCE
Mental Health First Aid Certification raised our capacity to prevent challenges from worsening, course-correct stigma and inaccurate assumption, and also alleviate feelings of isolation and shame.
The course will prepare you to more accurately notice and respond to mental health challenges by:
Understanding the importance of noticing signs of mental health challenges in others. Improve your ability to see and track those signs versus your assumptions about others or “how things work”.
Doing your part to reduce stigma and barriers to mental health challenges and effective responses.
Improve your motivation to approach a person when you see signs. Improve your effectiveness in conversing with them about their mental health.
Being fully present when a person is sharing. Understand how to listen, without giving advice or fixing.
Helping you embrace your role in supporting adults, with clear boundaries. Get better at giving facts and helpful guidance versus providing solutions.
Getting clear on how to help others develop and follow through with their own self-support strategies. Getting informed on when to contact professionals (both local and national) and the process for doing so.
