Mental Health First Aid Training 3/15/24
February 15, 2024 by Leave a Comment
Free Mental Health First Aid Training Offered at Shoreline Community College!
Shoreline Community College Counseling Center is offering free Mental Health First Aid (MHFA) training for our campus community. MHFA is a research-supported international education program developed to teach adults how to recognize and respond to signs and symptoms of mental health and substance use challenges. MHFA is a skills-based course that gives people the tools to assist someone who might be struggling with mental health or substance use challenges and connect them with appropriate support and resources. To date, 2.5 million people across the United States have been trained in MHFA.
Just as CPR helps those without clinical training assist an individual having a heart attack, MHFA prepares participants to interact with a person experiencing a mental health crisis. Mental Health First Aiders learn a 5-step Action Plan that guides them through reaching out and offering appropriate support.
With support from the Counseling Center, this training (valued at $170.00/participant) is FREE to Shoreline Community College employees and students.
Training Details:
We are currently offering a blended training which includes:
- 2-hour, self-paced online training prior to the in-person training and
- 6.5 hour in-person training
This quarter’s in-person training is scheduled for:
Friday, March 15th, 9:00am-3:30pm
The self-paced online training must be completed prior to attending the in-person training. You must complete the online and in-person training to become a certified Mental Health First Aider. MHFA certification lasts for 3 years.
Please email Gwyn Hoffman-Robinson at gehoffman@shoreline.edu to register and/or find out more information. Please note registration is limited and a waiting list will be started when capacity is reached. Once registered, details as far as room location, etc. will be shared.
Worried About a Student’s Well-Being or Academic Concerns? Care Team and Shoreline Early Alert are Here to Help!
January 16, 2024 by Leave a Comment
Shoreline Early Alert
Shoreline Early Alert (SEA) is a referral program to serve all students (domestic and international) during the first three weeks of each quarter. SEA is designed to provide early academic intervention to students encountering difficulty. That is why our goal is to reach out to the students early in the quarter and connect them to the appropriate resources.
Examples of SEA referrals include:
· No activity or little activity in Canvas
· Difficulties with attendance, tardiness, or pacing with class
· Low test or quiz scores
· Excessive missing assignments
· Lack of participation or communication
How to Make a Referral Use the SEA Referral Form – Formstack rather than sending individual emails. A SEA team member will respond to the referral within a business day by reaching out to both you and the student.
Care Team At Shoreline, we care and are here to help. At any time, year-round, are you worried about a student? Did you see or hear something concerning? Would you like to share appropriate resources with a student? The Shoreline Care Team assesses and provides support to students who may be in distress or display concerning behavior. Using the online form, you are encouraged to provide a report, even if you are unsure about your concern, want to consult with a Care Team member, or just want the information to be documented.
Please note: the Care Team does not respond directly to emergencies. In an emergency, call 911 and Campus Safety & Security (206-235-5860). Questions? Contact Derek Levy, Dean Student Support & Success, at dlevy@shoreline.edu or Savena Garrett, Director of Student Support Services at sgarrett@shoreline.edu.
