Love your neighbor.

Join us April 14 and 21 from 2 - 6 PM at Eastport UMC for a free Youth Mental Health First Aid (YMHFA) training. We're able to offer this to the community thanks to a grant from the Substance Abuse and Mental Health Services Administration (SAMHSA).

Why is this important?

Young people today face unique challenges that can impact their mental well-being. By equipping ourselves with the knowledge and skills to identify and respond to these challenges, we can create a more supportive and understanding community for our youth.

What is YMHFA?

This 8-hour course covers:

Typical adolescent development (ages 12-18)

Common mental health challenges faced by youth

A 5-step action plan for assisting youth in crisis and non-crisis situations

Local resources available to help

Who should attend?

This training is valuable for anyone who interacts with youth, including:

Parents and caregivers

Teachers and school staff

Youth leaders and mentors

**Community members

When and where?
