Mental Health First Aid

Following the horrific tragedy in Uvalde, Texas, many of us were seeking action steps we could take to make change. Being trained in Mental Health First Aid (MHFA) is one of them.

Meeting mental illness with understanding and compassion can not only help individuals in crisis, but also work to curb many of our society’s tragedies.

Greater Love Collective wants to help you become informed and empowered to make a difference.

Join us for this one-day training and learn how to identify, understand, and respond to signs of mental illness and substance abuse disorders. Just as CPR helps you assist someone having a heart attack, MHFA helps you assist someone having a mental health crisis.
