Youth Mental Health First Aid is designed to teach parents, family
members, caregivers, teachers, school staff, peers, neighbors, health
and human services workers, and other caring citizens how to help
youth who are experiencing mental health or addiction challenges or
crises. Youth Mental Health First Aid is primarily designed for adults
who regularly interact with young people. The course introduces common
mental health challenges for youth, reviews typical adolescent
development, and teaches a 5-step action plan for how to help young
people in both crisis and non-crisis situations. Topics covered
include anxiety, depression, substance use, disorders in which
psychosis may occur, disruptive behavior disorders (including AD/HD),
and eating disorders.
