The team members in the JWS are now officially Mental Health First Aid trained by the Mental Health National Council and SpectrCare. We happily spent our first day back in the office going through an all day training so we are prepared to assess the signs and symptoms of mental health conditions and share the resources available at our university, and in our community, with our students.
