This update will introduce participants to the unique risk factors and warning signs of mental health problems in adolescents (ages 12-18), build understanding of the importance of early intervention, and teach individuals how to help an adolescent in crisis or experiencing a mental health challenge. The training will use role plays and stimulations to demonstrate how to assess a mental health crisis; select interventions and provide initial help; and connect young people to professional, peer, social, and self-help care.
