Montserrat’s Psychological First Aid for Children Webinar

UNICEF and US AID are pleased to invite you to this dynamic Psychological First Aid (PFA) workshop designed to equip you with a modern, evidence-based, eight-step model utilised to support the well-being of children.

An alarming fact is that 50% of mental health disorders begin at age 14, and 75% by age 24 (World Health Organisation). As such, psychosocial interventions by persons such as yourself are urgent and critical.

This PFA model has been adapted to the Caribbean and utilised to provide psychosocial support to children during everyday events and crisis situations.

Webinar attendees will:

1. Gain access to upcoming UNICEF Mental Health and Psychosocial Support Resources

2. Define and understand PFA

3. Understand child-related trauma

4. Gain skills to identify and respond to psychological distress in children

5. Receive and utilise a downloadable PFA workbook

6. Play a dynamic interactive online game.
