R4 Connections Webinar Series
The Power of Mental Health First Aid
Date and Time: Thursday, January 9, 2025 at 11:00 a.m. MT
Description: Mental Health First Aid (MHFA) is an evidence-based, early intervention program that teaches individuals about mental health and substance misuse challenges. The course takes a person-first approach to supporting others and is grounded in the belief that recovery from a mental health or substance misuse issue is achievable. Through skills-based activities and discussions, participants will strengthen their knowledge to become better equipped with tools and resources to support their loved ones, friends, and community.
While the full MHFA course is 6-8 hours long, the Power of Mental Health First Aid webinar will explore the course framework and objectives, its global impact, and the tangible skills that one can expect to walk away with after completing the course.
Guest Speaker: Victoria Watson, M.Ed - Assistant Director of Health Promotion and Basic Needs at the University of Colorado, Denver
