Did you know? September is National Su***de Prevention Month, a time to raise awareness and break the stigma around the topic of su***de.

It's normal to feel overwhelmed or unsure of how to talk about su***de or suicidal ideation with your friends, loved ones, or community.

Luckily, there are resources out there that can help - and Mental Health First Aid training at Momentum is a great place to start.

Like CPR for mental health, MHFA teaches participants how to start safe conversations around mental health, address crises, and connect people to resources.

Interested in learning more?Contact us at learn@momentumforhealth.org to inquire about upcoming trainings or how you can bring a training to your workplace.
