CLAC’s Mental Health Initiatives

Whether working directly with our members or providing online learning, our staff, stewards, and worker health and safety representatives understand that “safety first” doesn’t just apply to physical safety.

CLAC is committed to helping our members and their communities become happier and healthier through our mental health programs, including our popular Mental Health First Aid training course and the My Health and Wellness tools found on myCLAC.

 

Why Choose Mental Health First Aid?

Mental Health First Aid (MHFA) is a comprehensive program of the Mental Health Commission of Canada that gives people the skills to provide early intervention to a person developing a mental health problem or experiencing a mental health crisis.

Just as physical first aid is administered to an injured person before medical treatment can be obtained, MHFA is given until appropriate treatment is found or until the crisis is resolved.

CLAC strongly supports this training and has made it a priority to provide this training to staff, union stewards, and worker health and safety representatives across the country.
