It includes how to recognise and assist an adolescent who may be experiencing a mental health problem or mental health crisis until appropriate professional help is received or the crisis resolves\, using a practical\, evidence-based action plan.\n\nParticipants must undertake self-paced online learning (three – five hours) prior to attending this one-day face-to-face session with experienced trainer Vince Riviere.\n\nPlease contact Mary Pickett or Alice Duffield for more information.\n\nVincent Riviere has worked in Child and Adolescent Mental Health and Wellbeing in South Australia for the past 15 years in a variety of settings which include non-government\, government and both secondary and primary school sectors.
