Stronger Communities for Healthier Minds
Helping Hands is a free course for Afghan, Burmese, Yazidi and Islamic communities, and people that support them. It gives people skills to support someone who is having a hard time.
You can learn what signs to look for, how to talk with someone and where they can get care.
Follow this project so you can also tell us what you think of the course. Grand Pacific Health staff, want to know what works well and what we can change to make it more useful for your community.
