Disability Program Navigator: Resources; A) 30 Second Trainings : Mental Health
The Mental Health 30 Second Training Package was developed by the 30 Second Training Work Group Members which was led by 30 Second Training Experts, Toni Costales-Servin and Kevin Nickerson as well as Miranda Kennedy from the NDI TA Team. The month of May has been designated as Mental Heath Month and this package was developed as a means to provide tools for DPNs nationwide to promote Mental Health Month. Below is a proposed schedule for DPNs to disseminate these trainings via email to One-Stop Career Center and Partner Agency staff. As you can see there are five Mental Health 30 Second Trainings (one for each Friday in May 2010 plus Friday April 30th 2010) and each 30 Second Training covers a specific topic.
- Friday, April 30th – Mental Health Month PPT
- Friday, May 7th – Compassion Fatigue/Secondary Trauma PPT
- Friday, May 14th – Mental Health Awareness for Youth
- Friday, May 21st – Veterans and PTSD
- Friday, May 28th - Schizophrenia
