The Youth Mental Health First Aid (MHFA) course equips adults who teach, care for, or support young people with the knowledge, skills and confidence to recognise, understand and respond to a young person experiencing a mental health problem or mental health crisis.
Youth MHFA teaches participants how to provide initial support to a young person (aged 12 - 18) who may be experiencing a mental health problem or mental health crisis, until professional help is received, or the crisis resolves.
This 14-hour course is delivered face-to-face as 2 x 7 hour sessions over 2 days.
