Youth Mental Health First Aid Training
Blended Course






Outside of the student’s home, schools are the most likely place where mental health concerns will be detected. Fortunately, the earlier mental health concerns are detected and addressed, the more likely a student is to avoid the onset and/or progression of mental illness. Youth Mental Health First Aid is designed to teach teachers, school staff, and other caring citizens how to help an adolescent who is experiencing a mental health or substance use challenge or is in crisis.

Important Session Information:


Many times, signs of deteriorating mental health are noticeable well before a mental health illness emerges.  Youth Mental Health First Aid teaches how to identify, understand, and respond to signs of mental health challenges among children and adolescents ages 12-18.  This course is evidence-based and satisfies HB 3 for mental health education for school staff.

 

NOTE:  This Blended Course includes 2 hours of self-paced online pre-work that must be completed prior to attending the 5 hour in-person portion of the class held at Region 8 ESC.
