Mental Health First Aid Training with ThriveNYC

Part of New York City’s ThriveNYC Initiative, Mental Health First Aid trainings provide proven practices that will help you recognize the early signs and symptoms of mental illness and substance misuse. You will learn how to listen without judgment, and respond to and help someone in distress until they can get the professional care they may need. 

ThriveNYC is an unprecedented commitment by the City of New York to create a mental health system that works for everyone.

This event is co-presented by Gibney Company’s Artistic Associate Leal Zielińska as part of her Advocacy Fellowship Program, OKAY LET’S UNPACK THIS.
