As many as 90 percent of those receiving mental health services have a history of trauma and more than 50 per cent of the general population has also experienced traumatic events. How can those certified in Mental Health First Aid be cognizant of the possibility of trauma as they facilitate early intervention and support for developing mental and substance use disorders and crisis resolution for psychiatric emergencies? How do they ask the right questions and respond appropriately. Mental Health First Aid-ers, instructors, and others are invited to join us for this deep dive by trauma-informed care experts. Register today.
