Mental Health First Aid (MHFA) is the support provided to a person who may be experiencing a decline in their mental well-being or a mental health crisis. This third-party platform provides virtual Mental Health First Aid offerings ranging in price from $150.00 to $250.00 per course. Cost will be the responsibility of the registrant department.

- Talk about declines in their mental well-being
- Discuss professional and other supports that could help with recovery to improved mental well-being

- Assist in a mental health or substance use crisis
- Use MHFA actions to maintain one’s own mental well-being
