YOUTH MENTAL HEALTH
FIRST AID TRAINING
WHAT IS YOUTH MENTAL HEALTH
FIRST AID TRAINING?
Mental Health First Aid is an internationally recognized skills-based training that teaches participants how to notice and support an individual who may be experiencing a mental health or substance use challenge or crisis.
The sooner we can help a youth in distress the better the outcomes will be.

WHY SHOULD YOU BRING THIS CLASS TO YOUR COMMUNITY?

Talking about mental health reduce the stigma surrounding mental health and suicide and allows the adult who take the class to step forward and help the teen who struggle
-

In some situations, mental health challenge can turn to a crisis - by helping someone who experience mental health challenges, you prevent it from escalating to a crisis

What Participants Say
I feel more empowered to be able to recognize and support someone in need of help. It was a great class and should be mandatory.
Danit Erlich made me feel safe and welcome. The level of empathy and reassurance she showed throughout the class was perfect for this subject matter.
Why should you take the class with me?
During the training, I highlight the importance of culture awareness, culture humility and encourage participants to share about their culture.
I talk about the importance of self care and encourage participants to share what they like to do for self care.
Participants feel comfortable sharing and asking questions and feel the training added more tools to their toolbox.
Danit's dedication to increasing the mental health literacy of adults working with youth is evidenced in her culturally relevant and responsive instruction of Youth Mental Health First Aid classes. She has instructed over 200 Lake Washington School District staff since the start of the pandemic. It is a pleasure to plan and collaborate with Danit on this important work.
