RFA Provides Accredited Excellence

90% of people can benefit from increasing resilience skills which protect against mental illnesses such as depression and anxiety. Throughout the pandemic, this need has only increased.

This is how we can take a preventative approach to mental health – rather than waiting until people need professional treatment, we can start supporting each other to connect and build mental wellness proactively.

Resilience First Aid (RFA) as a mental health certification teaches you strength-based skills to build resilience in others. You will learn how to spot signs of low resilience, learn language to talk proactively, and skills that build resilience.

This is how you can become a responder that proactively supports the mental health of others.
