Perhaps you’re wondering how you can support a friend’s mental health. Where would you start? The answer is Mental Health First Aid. You’ll learn to recognize when someone may be facing a mental health or substance use challenge — and be their first source of support.
Mental Health First Aid courses teach you how to help someone who might be facing a mental health crisis or difficulty. The training helps you identify, understand and respond to signs of mental health and substance use challenges.
When you teach MHFA, every action can create a ripple effect that makes waves bigger than yourself. Apply to become a Mental Health First Aid Instructor and help create a built-in support system for your community and indiviividuals.
There is no one-size-fits-all approach to using the MHFA Action Plan (ALGEE) — you don’t even have to use every single step to provide support. Every situation will be different, and you can use these 5 steps in any order.
