COMET Train the Trainer (T4T)

Recognizing that mental health functions on a spectrum, COMET™ (Changing Our Mental and Emotional Trajectory) is a community-based intervention to activate community members and provide them with language, tools and confidence to intervene when they notice someone around them is unwell – and before crisis occurs. COMET™ helps fill a gap and is a strong complement to other strategies to reduce the suffering resulting from the high levels of stress in rural, agricultural communities.COMET™ aligns with rural cultural values of neighbor helping neighbor and communities being their own best resource.

The Train the Trainer program trains local community members as Regional COMET Trainers, who are equipped to deliver the COMET Community Training in their own communities and networks. The Train the Trainer requires a $150 fee for certification.
