Mental Health First Aid certification workshop “The root of most stigmas is generally fear. The stigma surrounding mental illnesses in America is no different: fear of not understanding the problem, fear of doing or saying the "wrong" thing, and fear of not knowing what to do when someone needs help.” Mental Health First Aid is a 12-hour training course designed to give members of the public key skills to help someone who is developing a mental health problem or experiencing a mental health crisis. The evidence behind the program demonstrates that it makes people feel more comfortable managing a crisis situation and builds mental health literacy — helping the public identify, understand and respond to signs of mental illness. The next Mental Health First Aid certification workshop will be held on Tuesday, February 9 and Wednesday, February 10, 2010, at IKEA-Orlando. Come enjoy a full breakfast and lunch. Registration is due Monday, January 25. To register and learn more, click www.creatingtoday.net/MHFA.html. Please share with your family, friends and co-workers. Mental health affects everyone. Thank you! Peace, love and joy, Marie Dudek Phone; 863-424-4810 |
