Mental Health First Aid

Integrated Family Services, PLLC Mobile Crisis Director, Mona Townes, is now an Adult Mental Health First Aid facilitator!

Just as CPR helps you assist an individual having a heart attack — even if you have no clinical training — Mental Health First Aid helps you assist someone experiencing a mental health related crisis. In the Mental Health First Aid course, you learn risk factors and warning signs for mental health and addiction concerns, strategies for how to help someone in both crisis and non-crisis situations, and where to turn for help.
