President, Speak Out Against Suicide
“Our small community has been greatly affected by suicide. While mental health is a topic that many wish to not discuss, we feel that Mental Health First Aid was essential in bringing the knowledge and awareness our community is striving for. Without it, we would have continued to feel helpless.”
Ret., Rhode Island Municipal Police Academy and MHFA National Trainer
“My Mental Health First Aid training helped me save a life, and regular incidents serve as reminders of how public safety officers fall back on their training in times of crisis.”
Director of Career Connection, Employment Resource Institute at the Mental Health Association in New Jersey
“People who completed the older adult training found it extremely valuable. That’s helped us build a case for the need to increase mental health literacy and reduce stigma in New Jersey’s communities.”

“Mi mayor inspiración para continuar ofreciendo estos adiestramientos y capacitando a personas comunes es saber que estoy ayudando, directa o indirectamente, a los pacientes de salud mental. No hay mayor satisfacción que culminar un adiestramiento a las 5:30 p.m. y ver la expresión de los participantes al salir felices, con una mochila repleta de herramientas
University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill
“MHFA built a foundation that has really helped the campus culture.”
Retired Deputy Fire Chief, Clifton (N.J.) Fire Department
“Since completing training, I’ve noticed that there is more conversation about mental health, and that is helping reduce the stigma associated with behavioral health issues. People at our fire department are using what they learned in their personal lives as well as their professional lives.”
