This eight-hour training introduces common mental health challenges for youth (ages 12 - 18), reviews typical adolescent development, and teaches a five-step action plan for helping young people in crisis and non-crisis situations. Two certified instructors will lead the course.

This class is offered in a respectful, comfortable environment through the Board of Child Care under a grant from the Substance Abuse and Mental Health Services Administration (SAMHSA) free of charge.
