Gain skills and confidence with a Youth MHFA Course!
Australian Government health studies indicate that about 2 in 5 adolescents will meet criteria for some type of mental illness in any given year.
The 14 Hour Youth MHFA course teaches PRACTICAL and EVIDENCED BASED skills to assess, approach and assist a young person developing a mental health problem or in a crisis situation.
We place a great deal of importance in schools and youth organisations to learn regular first aid, yet mental health problems are far more common among young people than physical health problems.
This training is essential for teachers, school staff, parents and youth workers. The course is designed and accessible to any adult who lives or works with adolescents.
