LEARN HOW TO SUPPORT THE YOUNG PEOPLE IN YOUR LIFE

You'll also learn how to help connect them to appropriate support.

• Recognize common signs and symptoms of mental health challenges, including anxiety,

depression, eating disorders, and attention deficit hyperactive disorder (ADHD).

• Recognize common signs and symptoms of substance use challenges.

• Understand how to interact with a young person in crisis.
