Recovery happens together. Research shows meaningful human connection supports resilience, hope, and long-term recovery. Every connection can make a difference.

In honor of Su***de Awareness Month in September, the Regional Youth Prevention Network, facilitated by the Gloucester Health Department, is hosting a series of NO-COST Youth Mental Health First Aid courses on the North Shore. We are offering three options for this YMHFA course:

Wednesday, September 16: 9 am to 5 pm at the Beverly Cummings Center, 100 Cummings Center, Ste 221-E, Beverly, MA

Saturday, October 3: 8:30 am to 4:30 pm at the TOHP Burnham Public Library, 30 Martin Street, Essex, MA

Thursday, October 15 and Friday, October 16: 10 am to 2 pm each day at the Rockport Public Library, 17 School Street, Rockport, MA

YMHFA is appropriate for any adult who works with children and teens and/or who interacts with young people in their daily lives. This includes neighbors, bus drivers, coaches, teachers, parents, youth leaders, and more. People can register by scanning the QR code or by clicking here: https://forms.gle/gVX73LTPcb8HA5SH7

Today, we honor those we lost on September 11 — first responders, service members, and all who answered the call. We will never forget. If today brings up difficult emotions, support is available. Veterans: dial 988 and press 1. veteranscrisisline.net
