Mental Health First Aid Training

The Philadelphia Alumnae Chapter, in partnership with Senator Vincent Hughes and the Black Women’s Health Alliance, is sponsoring a virtual Mental Health First Aid Training, provided by the City of Philadelphia- Department of Behavioral Health and Intellectual DisAbility Services, that will provide a 3-year certification that teaches skills to respond to a mental health crisis until help arrives. MHFA is a groundbreaking early intervention and public education program that teaches community members about behavioral health and how to assist a person experiencing a behavioral health problem. MHFA teaches the skills needed to identify, understand and respond to signs and symptoms of behavioral health challenges or crises. First Aid is administered until appropriate treatments and supports are received or until the crisis is resolved.
