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 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.
This blended learning course includes an online portion (approximately 2 hours), an instructor-led classroom skills session (approximately 5 hours) and an online evaluation to be taken after the instructor-led session. The online portion must be completed before attending the in-class portion and the post work must be completed within 10 days of completing the in-class portion.
**The instructor-led portion will be held via Zoom from 6pm-8:30pm on the evenings on March 15th and March 16th. Attendance is required both evenings for completion. **
Girl members who are at least 18 years of age at the time of the training can attend this program.
