Professional Development
Northland Prevention Conference
At this exciting one-day conference, hosted annually in February/March, coalition members and concerned adults gain tools, resources, and knowledge that fuel effective prevention efforts across the Northland.

Youth Mental Health First Aid
YMHFA teaches non-professional adults how to identify, understand, and respond to signs of mental health illness and substance use disorders in youth. The 6-hour training gives these adults the skills they need to reach out and provide initial support to youth ages 6 to 18 and help connect them to appropriate care. Trainings are hosted throughout the year or private trainings for groups of 15 or more are available by request.
