29 September, 2021

Description

The number of people experiencing emotional/mental health crisis is on the rise. Learn how to communicate and connect may save a life. The Bridges of Hope workshop draws from my own experiences as a mental health survivor, details why the Hopeless to Hope project, and how the Bridges of Hope Road Map, can be a tool, to assist people in a varitey of professions, especially First Responders in their encounters with people experiencing emotionally challenging times. All attendees will receive 1 copy of the Bridges of Hope Road Map. A visual tool that many people find useful for figuring out where they are to where the want to be. This workshop is still in Beta testing and has been found useful by local law enforcement to slow down when encountering a person experiencing an emotional or mental health crisis and to learn to connect to what is really going on. The workshop is useful for all people who want to discover, build and maintain bridges of hope. Because of the Beta testing, the workshop is free. Please note that the workshops on September 15 and October 7 will be directed more towards First Responders. Attendance priority will go to First Responders on these two days.
