Mental Health First Aid Training

June 12 & 13, 2014

Recovery Resources

One in four Americans experience mental illness in their lifetime.  Will you be the one who helps?

Although you may be trained in CPR and First Aid, you're much more likely to encounter someone experiencing a mental health crisis than someone having a heart attack. 

What if you could help?  Mental Health First Aid is a national public education program, similar to CPR and First Aid, that helps members of the public identify, understand, and respond to signs of mental illness and substance use disorders.

Our nationally certified trainers will teach you a five step action plan that will teach you to assess a situation, implement appropriate interventions, and help the person connect with professional care. 

You will receive:

• MHFA certification valid for 3 years 
• MHFA participant workbook
• Snacks both days
• 8 hours of continuing education units for HR and social service professionals

What is the cost?  Recovery Resources is offering MHFA training for the low price of $150/individual and $125/individual for groups of 5+ who register together.  Payment must be made in advance by PayPal or you can contact Colleen Fitzgibbons at 216-431-4131, ext. 1123 or cfitzgibbons@recres.org to register.
