Mental Health First Aid Training at freeFall Theatre on 03/26/26

On March 30, 2026, freeFall Theatre will host a critical Mental Health First Aid training session aimed at empowering artists and cultural service workers. This initiative, part of a broader Creative Pinellas program, is designed to provide attendees with the skills necessary to identify and respond to signs of mental illness and substance use challenges within their communities. The in-person training will take place from 9 AM to 3 PM, ensuring participants receive a comprehensive six-hour course that includes two hours of self-paced online content and five hours of instructor-led training. Lunch and refreshments will be provided to enhance the experience. Participants will leave equipped to support individuals in crisis and guide them toward appropriate care. Space is limited, so interested individuals are encouraged to register before the March 16 deadline. This opportunity reflects Creative Pinellas’s commitment to fostering a supportive and vibrant creative community, underscoring the essential connection between mental health and the arts. Whether you are an artist or involved in cultural services, this training could be a transforming step toward both personal and communal well-being.
