Youth Mental Health First Aid


-
Youth Mental Health First Aid is designed to teach parents, family members,
caregivers, teachers, school staff, peers, neighbors, health and human services
workers, and other caring citizens how to help an adolescent (age 12-18) who
is experiencing a mental health or addictions challenge or is in crisis. Youth
Mental Health First Aid is primarily designed for adults who regularly
interact with young people. The course introduces common mental health
challenges for youth, reviews typical adolescent development, and teaches a
5-step action plan for how to help young people in both crisis and non-crisis
situations. Topics covered include anxiety, depression, substance use,
disorders in which psychosis may occur, disruptive behavior disorders
(including AD/HD), and eating disorders.
