1 in 4 adults and 1 in 3 youth will experience a mental or substance use crisis in their lifetime. Someone you know, maybe someone your organization serves, could be experiencing crisis right this minute. YOU can help them.
Just as CPR helps you assist an individual having a heart attack, Mental Health First Aid helps you assist someone experiencing a mental health related crisis. Mental Health First Aid is an 8-hour course that uses role -playing and scenarios to demonstrate how to help someone in need and connect individuals to the appropriate professional, peer, social, and self-help care.
Mental Health America of Northern Kentucky and Southwest Ohio is facilitating this course regionally while continuing to do what it does best by connecting people to mental health services. Learn more at www.mhfatristate.org
