Alberta Health Services Community Helpers Program

Alberta Health Services Community Helpers Program Online

Open to all RDC students, alumni, faculty and staff, the Alberta Health Services Community Helpers Certificate Program provides practical skills that you can use in your day-to-day life. The goal is to build on your natural helping ability by providing you with the skills and knowledge necessary to support your peers’ mental health and well-being.

The Program:

  • bridges “formal” and “informal” support for young people,
  • reduces stigma and labelling of mental health issues, 
  • focuses on prevention and early identification for individuals who may be at risk,
  • provides extensive training in handling crisis situations effectively and ethically,
  • reduces stigma by increasing campus and community awareness,
  • expands knowledge on mental health issues, and
  • improves interventions for those who may be at risk of suicide.
