What is Mental Health First Aid and what does it teach?
MHFA is skills-based training that teaches people how to identify, understand, and respond to signs and symptoms of a mental health or substance use challenge. Similar to physical First Aid and CPR, MHFA helps you assist someone experiencing a mental health or substance use crisis until professional assistance is obtained or the crisis is resolved.
