About Mental Health First Aid® Australia
Since it began in 2000, Mental Health First Aid® Australia has been committed to evaluating its training programs using rigorous, scientific studies. A number of these evaluations were conducted by MHFA™ or by the Population Mental Health Group at the University of Melbourne. Evaluation studies have also been conducted by independent organisations.
These evaluations consistently show that MHFA training is associated with improved knowledge of mental illnesses and their treatments, knowledge of appropriate first aid strategies, and confidence in providing first aid to individuals with mental illness, benefits which are maintained over time. Some studies have also shown improved mental health in those who attend the training, decreases in stigmatising attitudes, and increases in the amount and type of support provided to others.
MHFA Website Resources
The Mental Health First Aid® Australia website contains resources on the research, evaluation and guidelines that are the basis for MHFA™ courses.
