Mental Health First Aid

 Like CPR, Mental Health First Aid prepares people to interact with a person in crisis and connect them with help. Our Experience Hope Training Institute teaches basic restorative and trauma-responsive philosophies and practices. 
 
Many people with mental health struggles find solace in their faith. But church members or staff may not know how to respond to their struggles or help in a crisis. This training offers tools and answers to questions like, “What do I do?” or “Where can someone find help?”  
 
This course is appropriate for anyone who wants to learn how to help someone who may be experiencing a mental health-related crisis or problem. Participants can use the skills learned in their daily lives, including within their own families, churches, or neighborhoods.
