[A picture containing drawing  Description automatically generated]As libraries continue to navigate these challenging times, we all could benefit from training on how to better support people who are experiencing mental health and substance use disorders.

To that end, please consider this second opportunity to attend a FREE course on Mental Health First Aid (MHFA)—a 5 ½ hour virtual training program that is evidence-based, highly interactive, and will give you the tools to identify, understand, and respond to signs of mental illnesses and substance use disorders in real, actionable ways.

Watch this short video to learn more about MHFA, why it’s so important to be equipped, how Clermont County libraries benefited from this training in the past, and how you and your library can benefit too:  https://youtu.be/qsvU-HcUsbQ

If you are interested in joining the 2 million certified Mental Health First Aid providers, click on one of the links below to register today!  The deadline to sign up is Tuesday, January 19th so don’t delay.  Each class is limited to 20 attendees and they will fill up quickly! Once you receive your MHFA certification, it is good for three years.

Thank you to the Statewide MHFA Collaborative who is covering the costs for this training.

For more details about the class, or if you have any questions, please see the attached flyers for program FAQs and trainer contact information.
