Free Training! Youth Mental Health First Aid
Free Training! Youth Mental Health First Aid Training
With support towards mental wellness on the rise and a priority for the overall health of our girls, we are proud to offer a virtual training opportunity for adults to earn their Youth Mental Health First Aid certification at no cost! Youth Mental Health First Aid is primarily designed for adults* who regularly interact with young people. The course introduces common mental health challenges for youth, reviews typical adolescent development, and teaches a five-step action plan for how to help young people in both crisis and non-crisis situations.
This blended learning course includes an online portion (approximately two hours), an instructor-led classroom skills session and an online evaluation to be taken after the instructor-led session. The instructor-led portion will be held via Zoom from 6-8 p.m. on the evenings of August 14-16. Participants must attend all three sessions to earn certification. Register before the July 31, 2023 deadline.
*Girl members who are at least 18 years of age at the time of the training can attend this program.
