SchoolsYouth and Teen

“We are thrilled to bring Youth Mental Health First Aid to our community,” said Joseph Bunch, Co-coordinator of the Strategic Prevention Framework grant under the Drug Free Partnership. “This important educational effort goes a lot further than emergency intervention. It really helps people understand the shroud of fear and misjudgment facing individuals and families who experience mental illnesses and addiction. It will help rid this community of the associated stigma and move more and more people toward recovery.”
