Dear Shoreline Community College Faculty and Staff,

I wanted to inform you of a FREE training opportunity for adults who live and/or work in the City of Shoreline. The flyer is also attached. This is a great training and education opportunity for parents, coaches, teachers, aunts, uncles and grandparents of young people. You can be the first line of support for youth experiencing mental health issues and this training teaches you valuable information to feel confident providing that support. Youth Mental Health First Aid teaches a 5-step action plan to offer initial help to a young person showing signs of a mental health challenge or illness.

This training is available to adults who live and/or work in the City of Shoreline. Register today by contacting Tanya at 206-631-8836 or tanya@chs-nw.org

veterans presentation
Please join the Veterans Programs office for the first in a series of training opportunities next Wed., Oct. 21 from 2-3 p.m. in room 1402 entitled: How Transitioning Service Members and Veterans View the Classroom…and You. Please attend and lets learn how we can best serve Veterans on campus together!!

Shoreline Community College, Navy Veterans Mike Schindler – CEO of Operation Military Family and Steve Vincent, Captain United States Navy (retired), will share “insider thoughts” on how transitioning service member and their families often look to college as their “next mission” in order to better themselves for life in the civilian world. But the classroom environment can often be more “foreign” than field missions.

You will walk away from this training with a better understanding of what Veterans experience through the transition process and what perceptions they often have to overcome as well as determine how the skills and experiences of a military/veteran family can add value to your classroom – you also may just learn what expectations a Veteran has of you…the leader of the classroom.

Plan to attend. The event is free and refreshments will be available (those are free too). Please register in advance here.
