Licensed by MHFA International since 2017, MHFA India delivers evidence-based Mental Health First Aid training programs adapted to the Indian context. The organisation aims to improve mental health literacy, reduce stigma, encourage early help-seeking, and build supportive environments across society.
MHFA India offers a wide range of certified training programs designed for different audiences and settings. Their key programs include Standard Mental Health First Aid, MHFA for Workplaces, MHFA for Higher Education, MHFA for Public, Suicide Prevention training, Mental Health Awareness programs, and Instructor Training courses. These programs teach participants how to recognise signs of mental distress, respond safely and confidently, provide initial support, and guide individuals toward professional help when needed. The courses are available in face-to-face, blended, and online learning formats.
The training programs are designed for a broad audience including employees, managers, HR professionals, teachers, students, parents, healthcare staff, community leaders, NGOs, and the general public. Workplace programs help organisations create psychologically safer and more supportive cultures, while higher education programs equip students and faculty with skills to support peers facing emotional difficulties. Public programs are suitable for anyone interested in understanding mental health and supporting friends, family members, or colleagues in times of distress.
Through its certified instructors and nationwide training initiatives, MHFA India continues to build a community of Mental Health First Aiders who can provide early support during mental health problems or crises until appropriate professional help is available.
