Where did the idea for MHFA come from?

What began as a conversation on the sidelines of an event quickly turned into a larger project: first aid courses for emergency physical care are common in our society. But what about first aid for mental health? Several colleagues have already participated in MHFA first aid courses. In this certified seminar, we learned how to provide faster and more targeted support in difficult situations – whether in conversations with colleagues or in challenging moments in everyday working life.

Would you like to become an MHFA first aider yourself? You can find more information about the seminar here [de].
