This certification is good for up to 3 years. Mental Health First Aid provides participants with the skills needed to directly respond to presenting crisis and non-crisis mental health challenges by building confidence and increasing action towards prevention, intervention, and referral. Overall, MHFA enhances the quality of support provided on-campus as participating students, faculty, and staff deepen mental health literacy and apply strength-based, holistic plans of action for emotional, mental, and behavioral concerns. For more information, please visit the Mental Health First Aid website. This certification class is open to the first 30 people that register. The cost for registration is $35 and covers your certification fee, lunch, and printed materials. *If you are a licensed social worker in the state of Alabama, this certification is also worth six CEU hours.
