Consistent with WVU's land-grant mission, we are committed to addressing the mental health needs of children and school communities in our state. Supported by a five-year SAMHSA grant, we aim to provide free Youth Mental Health First Aid trainings to school staff across West Virginia.
Interested in having us provide free Youth Mental Health First Aid training to your school staff?
Presently, we are accepting requests from school administrators (e.g., principals, vice principals, superintendents) to provide Youth Mental Health First Aid training to their school staff. Trainings occur in-person and last approximately 8 hours.

I want to say thank you to both of you for the wonderful training my staff and I received last week. I have had an abundance of positive feedback from everyone in attendance. Our students are struggling, but we feel better prepared to identify and assist our students thanks to this training. We are sharing our thoughts with others throughout the county so other schools may be in contact soon!
