Demonstrate basic mental health literacy
This program explores how mental health challenges develop, how they affect individuals and families, and how supportive interventions can promote recovery, resilience, and healthier communities.
The Non-Vocational Mental Health and Addiction (MHA) Certificate Program introduces learners to fundamental concepts related to mental health, emotional well-being, and substance use challenges. The program emphasizes awareness, compassion, and supportive approaches rather than diagnosis or treatment.
Learners will gain insight into common mental health conditions, addiction patterns, stigma reduction, and recovery-oriented support. The course also highlights self-care, community resources, and the importance of respectful, trauma-informed interactions.
