What You'll Learn

Health includes our physical, emotional, social, and spiritual well-being. It impacts how people think, feel, and behave. Though mental health is an important part of overall health at all stages of life, physical health is generally the focus of attention. This emphasis on physical health, to the exclusion of other aspects of health, leads to mental health stigma and unaddressed symptoms of depression and anxiety.  

It is not always possible for people to access mental health care due to barriers such as cost, language, transportation, and other factors. Mental health ambassadors fill a critical gap by being equipped to support mental health self-care and identify professional resources when necessary. Through this course, you'll be able to:

  • Enact the role of a mental health ambassador 
  • Respond effectively to promote positive mental health outcomes 
  • Differentiate between various symptoms of depression & anxiety 
  • Identify the causes of depression & anxiety 
  • Teach mental health self-care strategies 
  • Refer to a professional when necessary 

Cost for this course is $30, which includes a digital badge validating your learning issued upon completion. Contact Laurie Lemmen for more information, laurie.lemmen@calvin.edu

 

I was both delighted and impressed with the Mental Health Ambassador training. The online platform enables people across diverse economic and social strata to learn with ease. The flexibility empowered me to choose how I engaged with the content. Frequent quizzes helped solidify the material, offering a grace-filled approach by allowing for retakes. I believe this information has the potential to revolutionize our communities by introducing stigma-breaking, life-affirming concepts and fostering effective communication skills. Well done!
