Be There Certificates
To further our knowledge, we’ve decided to complete a course on mental health training. From completing the six interactive lessons, we have truly harnessed not only a deeper understanding of Be There’s 5 Golden Rules, but also an opportunity to reflect on how we currently engage with friends and whether or not we are doing the best of our ability to lead conversations on mental health. We have also used this as a tool to educate others on recognition and support.
