Adapt MHFA for your country

Mental Health First Aid International Logo We receive regular inquiries from additional countries wishing to adopt the program. However, experience has shown that for the program to be successful in another country, it needs to be supported by a suitable organisation in that country. Only overseas organisations that can demonstrate the following characteristics will be eligible for consideration as a suitable organisation:

• They must have the appropriate personnel with extensive mental health and training experience.
• They need sufficient start‐up funding and a funding model that will sustain the program into the future.
• They need to be able to deliver the MHFA Program to a suitably‐sized population within their country.
