  • Mental Health First Aid (MHFA) teaches you how to identify and help a person developing a mental health problem, experiencing a mental health crisis, or a worsening of their mental health. Like physical first aid, MHFA assistance is provided until professional support arrives.
  • The Working Mind (TWM) trains you to reduce stigma and promote mental health in the workplace, creating a more resilient and supportive culture among employees and leaders.
  • The Inquiring Mind (TIM) is designed to meet the needs of post-secondary and high school students and help them cope with the unique challenges and stressors found in an educational setting.

A world where everyone supports and strives for good mental health, enabling people to live fulfilling lives.
