Mental Health First Aid (MHFA) is a course that teaches you how to identify, understand and respond to signs of mental illnesses and substance use disorders. The training gives you the skills you need to reach out and provide initial help and support to someone who may be developing a mental health or substance use problem or experiencing a crisis.

Just like certification for CPR or First Aid, MHFA allows participants to receive a certification in Mental Health First Aid training.

Space is available on a first-come, first-served basis to Dallas College employees and students ages 18 and up who are out of high school. In total, there are 20 spots available per date/class, and we offer in-person or online training events.

Location: Online
