First Aid Training

Get Trained as a Certified Mental Health First Aider

Want to make a real difference? Research- and evidence-based Mental Health First Aid training teaches you how to recognize the signs of mental health and substance use challenges and learn how to offer initial support to connect someone to the professional help they need.

Just like CPR helps you respond to a physical emergency, Mental Health First Aid prepares you to respond to someone experiencing emotional distress, anxiety, depression or a mental health crisis.

Why take the training?

• Learn how to support yourself, family and friends, classmates and community members
• Build confidence in recognizing and speaking up for mental health concerns
• Reduce stigma and be part of a more supportive campus community
• Gain practical skills you can use for life
• Join a national network of First Aiders

This training empowers you to step in, listen without judgment, and guide someone toward appropriate resources when it matters most.
