Event Details

According to recent reports, 88% of college students reported their school life to be stressful and 60% of the students met the criteria for at least one mental health challenges. A 2019 study found that nearly half of college students who were followed from freshman to junior year met criteria for at least one substance use challenge during that time.

The Strategic Ohio Council for Higher Education (SOCHE) invites you to join us for an in-person Mental Health First Aid for Higher Education Training on Friday, April 26, at the Montgomery County Business Solutions Center (1435 Cincinnati St., Suite 300, Dayton). The training, which will culminate in certification, takes place from 8:30 a.m. to 4:30 p.m. and includes lunch. 

Prepare your campus to address mental health and substance use challenges commonly experienced in higher education settings. Developed by people with lived experience of mental health challenges and professionals, this course teaches early intervention techniques and improves mental health literacy to help you understand, identify and respond to signs and symptoms of mental health and substance use challenges.

Our engaging training program will help you decrease stigma, address tough challenges, and allow your students, professors, and other school faculty to show up fully in their daily lives and support those around them.

WHAT IT COVERS:

  • The relevance of mental health to the campus community.
  • Risk factors and protective factors specific to the higher education setting.

Councils & Committees

SOCHE is dedicated to advancing higher education through active collaboration, resource and knowledge building, and effective professional development programs. To accomplish this, SOCHE administers 16 active Councils and Committees. The purpose of a SOCHE Council or Committee is to provide an opportunity for representatives from higher education to be a resource for one another, share information and best practices, identify common challenges, and, ultimately, broaden awareness of the resources, services, and activities in higher education. SOCHE is also dependent upon the Councils and Committees for substantial input on annual professional development programs.
