Alexander Jewish Family Service, envisions a community in which Mental Health First Aid (MHFA) training is as common as CPR. Just as CPR training helps a person with no clinical training assist an individual in medical distress, MHFA training provides tools to assist someone experiencing mental distress. The goal is to support an individual until appropriate professional help.

Learning to recognize the signs can truly save a life. 💙

Hear from our Behavioral and Mental Health team, this Mental Health Awareness Month as they highlight the benefits of MHFA. Learn more about Adult & Youth MHFA trainings here.
