The NCCU Counseling Center provides opportunities throughout the year to encourage our campus community to become advocates of mental health well-being. Mental Health First Aid (MHFA) is one of the ways students, faculty, and staff members can learn approaches to help others.
MHFA training provides effective ways to respond to someone experiencing a mental health problem or emergency and connect them to appropriate resources. Attendees learn to recognize the signs of disruption that may occur for a specific problem or as an ongoing concern. Students can earn service hours by completing this training. The 2-hour self-paced module and pre-work must be completed before attending the remaining part of the training that is in-person (ILT).
Registration is open to current NCCU administrators, faulty, staff, and students, and community members. Registration is at a tiered cost. The following link is for registering for the course separate from adding the service opportunity once the training is completed, https://forms.gle/pti1YAQMdEk4V4Eb8.
