Dear 4-H Volunteers,
January is Ohio 4-H Mental Health Awareness Month. All month there will be virtual opportunities for youth and volunteers to learn more about mental health on our website and Facebook pages, as well as virtual SPIN Clubs and volunteer trainings.
You are invited to attend the Ohio 4-H Volunteer Mental Health Training series each Wednesday in January. These trainings will be held virtually on ZOOM from 6:00 – 7:00 p.m. Each training is stand alone, so you can pick and choose which training(s) you’d like to attend. The attached flyer gives detailed descriptions of each training:
- January 6 – Mental Health 101
- January 13 – Typical Adolescence vs. Emerging Mental Health Problems
- January 20 – Trauma Informed Approaches Training
- January 27 – Recognizing the signs and symptoms of Suicide and Non-Suicidal Self-Injury
To register for any of the trainings, please go to http://go.osu.edu/4HMHtraining.
I hope that you will consider participating in this important training. These trainings are completely optional.
