You are more likely to encounter someone — a friend, family member, coworker, neighbor or member of the community — in an emotional or mental crisis than someone having a heart attack.

Learn a 3-step action plan to offer initial help to people with the signs and symptoms of a mental illness or in a crisis, and connect them with the appropriate professional, peer, social or self-help care.

Anyone can take the course: first responders, students, teachers, leaders of faith communities, human resources professionals and caring citizens.
