Mental Health First Aid: CPR for the Mind

If you were in a restaurant and someone was choking many of us would know basically what to do even if we were not trained in CPR. HOWEVER, if many of us experienced someone who was experiencing an anxiety episode or other mental health challenge, we would have no clue what to do. This is where MENTAL HEALTH FIRST AID (MHFA) comes in - it's the CPR for the MIND! MHFA teach us skills to intervene until professional help arrives! On this week's Discover A New Future Show we will focus on this important topic and showcase some of the organizations and persons who are leading this effort in New Jersey!
