BECOME A MENTAL HEALTH FIRST AIDER

to support friends, family members, colleagues and others.

About 1 in 5 Australian adults experience a common mental illness each year. Mental
Health First Aid (MHFA) training will teach you practical skills to support someone with
a mental health problem. Make a real difference to people in your community.

LEARN PRACTICAL FIRST AID SKILLS
• Recognise common mental health problems
• Provide initial help using a practical, evidence-based Action Plan
• Seek appropriate professional help, and
• Respond in a crisis situation. This is a 12-hour educational course, not a therapy or support group.
