Youth Mental Health Awareness Course
Youth Mental Health Awareness Course
This is a Funded Course through North Lincolnshire Adult Education and Family Learning. The course is aimed at anyone who works with, lives with or supports young people aged 8-18. You will learn the skills and confidence to spot the signs of mental health issues in a young person, offer first aid and guide them towards the support they need. In doing so, you can speed up a young person’s recovery and stop a mental health issue from getting worse.
This introductory three hour session raises awareness of young people’s mental health.
It covers:
- Some of the common mental health issues affecting young people, including depression, anxiety, eating disorders and psychosis
- Skills to work more effectively with young people living with mental health issues
- Ways to support young people with a mental health issue and relate to their experiences
Live courses are being held through the summer holidays, so for more information on the Youth Mental Health Aware course or to find out how to enrol, please contact Alex Piercy on telephone 07927 551339 or email alex.piercy@nlcacl.co.uk
