Event Details

Please join us online for a virtual Mental Health 101 presentation. Jasmine Lucas, the Coordinator of Mental Health Education and Training at the Association for Mental Health and Wellness will lead this session.

Please note: This presentation will not be recorded. Mental Health 101 reframes the conversation about mental health-teaching that we ALL have mental health; it’s not just about the presence or absence of an illness. The one hour training will help participants understand mental health as an integral part of overall health, prevalence of mental illness, and risk & protective factors; promote help-seeking behavior, recovery and self-care.

Training Goals:

  • Increase basic knowledge of mental health to help reduce stigma.
  • Understand Mental Health as a continuum of wellness that defines us every day — it is illness, recovery and all of the space in between. 
  • Promote wellness, treatment seeking behavior, recovery and self-care.
