The Canadian Red Cross Psychological First Aid course takes a resiliency-building approach to emotional, psychological, and social well-being. Designed for everyone - not just health professionals - this training helps individuals understand stress, loss, trauma, and grief while learning how to care for themselves and others in times of crisis.

Through the Red Cross Look, Listen, Link, Live model and real-life case-based learning, participants gain practical tools to manage stress, foster compassion, and create supportive environments at home, work, and in their communities.

This course emphasizes prevention and everyday wellness rather than diagnosis, making it an ideal complement to workplace wellness programs and community support initiatives.
