Course Description:

Mental Health First Aid for Military, Veterans, and their Families is an evidence-based and early intervention training program developed for adults to learn how to assist and support members of their community who may be experiencing a mental health or substance use challenge.

This training specifically addresses the relevance of mental health to military culture, information on risk factors such as mental and physical trauma faced by many service members and their families, how to break down stigma and how to reach out to those who suffer in silence and are reluctant to seek help.

You will be registered for the course in Mental Health First Aid National’s Learning Management System (LMS) once the registration window closes. Next steps will be communicated via email from the course instructor(s)/coordinator. The instructor-led portion of the course will be hosted IN-PERSON at the indicated location.
