RWW-Mental Health First Aid
Spartan Connect Events | SRP Lounge - 701 Highland Ave
Similar to first aid training, Mental Health First Aid (MHFA) provides education on how to be a responder for mental health crises. MHFA is not training participants how to treat or diagnose, but participants will learn how to recognize the signs and symptoms of mental health concerns. This is a great way to learn how to best intervene when you're noticing mental health concerns at varied stages (early warning signs, worsening signs, and mental health crises). This training is 8 hours (lunch provided). Participants must complete the training and all necessary training items (before and after) to earn their certificate. In order to participate, you MUST REGISTER. Please see the RSVP link to secure your spot!

Dimensions of Wellness: Health Yeah!
Spartan Connect Events | Virtual- Microsoft Teams
When considering health, we often think only in terms of physical and mental health; however true wellness is much broader. A holistic approach to wellness supports the whole person and encompasses eight dimensions. Each dimension contributes to optimal health and well-being, including physical, emotional, social, intellectual, career, cultural, environmental, and financial wellness. This presentation will explore the eight dimensions of wellness, provide an opportunity for you to examine your relationship with each dimension, and discover new ways to support your health and wellness.
