In observance of Veterans Day and Military Family Month, we invite you to join us for a FREE Adult Mental Health First Aid Class for Veterans and their families living in South Carolina and South Carolinians who work with and serve Veterans. This class is sponsored by BlueCross BlueShield of South Carolina Foundation.

This will be a virtual class offered via zoom to accommodate COVID protocols and reach people across the state without the burden of travel. Although virtual, the live session is highly interactive with videos, engaging discussions, and small group activities. In addition to the live instructor-led session on November 10, 2021, participants must also complete a 2-hour online, self-paced prerequisite course. This prerequisite is an Introduction to Mental Health First Aid and must be completed prior to attending the live session.
