Course Overview

Mental Health First Aid (MHFA) is the help provided to a person developing a mental health problem or experiencing a mental health crisis. The skills obtained from this course will allow you to provide initial support to someone who may be developing a mental health problem or experiencing a mental health crisis.

MHFA teaches people mental health first aid skills which are administered until appropriate treatment is found or until the crisis is resolved. This course does not train a participant to be a therapist, counsellor, or mental health professional.
