About this Event

This training session is specifically geared towards public safety and law enforcement professionals.

Hope Network is honored to partner with Grand Valley State University Criminal Justice to bring Mental Health First Aid (MHFA) for Public Safety.

Public safety professionals encounter high levels of stress, trauma and critical incidents, which can take a toll on mental health. Mental Health First Aid (MHFA) for Public Safety gives personnel the skills they need to reach out and provide initial support to someone who may be developing a mental health or substance use challenge and help connect them to the appropriate care. This evidence-based training promotes open dialogue, reduces stigma and encourages public safety professionals to seek support when needed.

MHFA participants will learn about the role of a Mental Health First Aider, Common Mental Disorders in the Unites States, Signs and Symptoms, MHFA Action Plan, and Self-Care.

AFTER THE COURSE, YOU’LL BE ABLE TO:

  • Recognize common signs and symptoms of mental health challenges.
  • Recognize common signs and symptoms of substance use challenges.
  • Understand how to interact with a person in crisis.
  • Know how to connect a person with help.
  • Use self-care tools and techniques.

Training Expectations:

This class takes place in-person at Grand Valley Frederik Meijer Campus in Holland (515 S Waverly Rd, Holland, Michigan, 49423). Please plan to arrive 10 minutes early. If you join more than 10 minutes after the training start time, you will not receive credit for the course.

There will be a 1 hour lunch break. We do not offer lunch with this training. You are welcome to bring your own (we do have a microwave), and there are a plethora of restaurants and fast casual places to grab lunch.

This training is conducted by a Hope Network employee who is also a certified USA Mental Health First Aid Instructor from the National Council for Mental Wellbeing.
