Troop leaders, volunteers, and parents are invited to join us for Youth Mental Health First Aid training. 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 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.

At the completion of the day's training, you'll receive a certificate that you're certified in Youth Mental Health First Aid.

This course is valued at $170 but is available at a discounted rate thanks to very generous funding from GSUSA.

This is a blended training which will require approximately 2 hours of online pre-work prior to the in-person training. Pre-work must be completed prior to the in-person portion of the course.

Time: 1:00 - 5:00pm EST (with an additional 2 hours of pre-work online on your own before the in-person training on 4/5!)

Registration deadline: April 24, 2025
