SUMMARY:Depolarization: An Interactive Workshop for Disciples in a Democracy
DESCRIPTION:Virtual ONLY on November 8 \nAcross the church\, we encounter longing for an end to division and hear yearning in the honest question: How do we respond to people who believe (fill in the blank)? One year from the 2024 election and just weeks from Thanksgiving\, when many of us will gather at tables with family members we may feel we no longer know\, this question takes on deeper urgency. \n  \nIn these interactive workshops\, Silas Kulkarni\, ELCA Director of Strategy and Advocacy\, will give an introduction to the who\, why\, and how of depolarization work\, particularly in the context of faith-based advocacy. As Christians\, we are called by Jesus to love our enemies and to do the work of justice. Sometimes these two calls can seem like they are in tension\, if not outright opposition.  Focusing on the use of tools and trainings from the depolarization organization\, Braver Angels (www.braverangels.org)\, Kulkarni will introduce a model for loving engagement across ideological and cultural divides\, that neither precludes passionate advocacy\, nor requires taking a “middle of the road” position. He will also point to opportunities and resources for learning more and continuing beyond this introductory session. \n  \nThe event is a partnership of LAMPa and United Lutheran Seminary. These sessions will *not* be recorded. More Information here. Register here.

SUMMARY:MHFA Virtual Adult Training  Online
DESCRIPTION:Mental Health First Aid® (MHFA) Virtual Training\nSponsored by the City of Philadelphia\, Department of Behavioral Health and Intellectual disAbility Services \nThe Adult MHFA virtual training is based on new curricula that includes expanded content on trauma\, addiction\, and self-care. Youth MHFA includes new content applicable for adults working with young people\, including content on the impact of social media. The content is gender-neutral and culturally relevant.\n\nSimilar to CPR\, Mental Health First Aiders learn basic skills to help another person in need of support. Mental Health First Aid teaches how to assist a person who may be struggling with mental health or addiction challenges\, and what to do if the person you are helping is in crisis.\n\n\nResearch shows that people are more likely to assist another person after this training\, and more likely to recommend treatment resources. This training has also shown to decrease stigma toward people with behavioral health challenges.\n\nFirst Aiders will complete the Self-Paced Pre-work prior to participating in a 5.5-hour\, Instructor-led class using videoconferencing technology. Completion of both courses is required to obtain the 3-year national certification as a Mental Health First Aider.\nQuestions? Please email: mhfa_philly@pmhcc.org or call (215) 685-3755 \nThis course is provided at NO COST to those who live\, work or study in the City of Philadelphia.
