MHFA Adults who Interact with Youth is intended for an adult audience whose primary focus is youth (aged 14-25). Participants are given an understanding and overview of the most common mental health challenges and illnesses and the signs and symptoms within them.  We will also explore information around stigma, responding to suicidal ideation and the interactions between substance use and mental health issues.  This two-day certificated course gives participants the tools they need to interact confidently about mental health with the young people in their lives, including at schools, extra-curricular activities, social services, family, friends, and communities. 

You are required to attend both days to receive certification. 

This learning opportunity is being offered through a grant from Alberta Education.
