Coalition Trains Six New Mental Health First Aiders

Jul 27, 2023

On Wednesday, July 26th, the Coalition trained six new community members in Adult Mental Health First Aid.

Adult Mental Health First Aid teaches participants how to assist someone experiencing a mental health or substance use-related crisis. During the course, participants reviewed risk factors and warning signs for mental health and addiction concerns, learned strategies for how to help someone in both crisis and non-crisis situations, and explored where they can turn for help.
