Just as CPR prepares you to help someone having a heart attack, Mental Health First Aid teaches you how to assist someone experiencing a mental health or substance use challenge or crisis.

This FREE, full-day training is designed for farmers, agribusiness workers, and anyone who lives in or serves rural communities—including civic and faith leaders, healthcare providers, and neighbors.

Now more than ever, these skills are essential. Join us to build your confidence in recognizing the signs of a challenge or crisis and offering meaningful support.

Participants who complete the course will receive a certificate of completion.

The training includes a 30-minute lunch break and several short breaks throughout the day. Lunch and refreshments will be provided at no cost.
