FREE Mental Health First Aid Training. Learn to understand, & respond to mental health & substance abuse challenges

We’ve partnered with Mayor Derek Armstead, the Mayor’s Wellness Campaign, and the Linden Opioid Ad-Hoc Committee to offer free Mental Health First Aid training to the public!

Mental Health First Aid training teaches you how to identify, understand, and respond to signs of mental health challenges and substance use disorders. This training teaches you the best ways to provide initial support, approach difficult situations with confidence, and connect to appropriate care and resources for your family, friends, coworkers, and community.

Three opportunities to attend:

* October 24 | 8 AM–4 PM @ JTG Recreation Center
* November 21 | 8 AM–4 PM @ JTG Recreation Center
* December 5 | 8 AM–4 PM @ Linden Public Library

Each of us has the power to make a difference in someone’s life. Recognizing the signs, starting the conversation, and connecting someone is the first step. Take the training. Be prepared.
