The Youth MHFA course would be very well suited to you as a mother of two teenagers, and your future role as a nurse. You may even wish to attend a Standard MHFA course as part of your professional development too! :-) All the best from us at MHFA Thank you for your comment Joanne!

I am getting ready to take my first MHFA course. I want to know this information because I am the mother of two teenage girls. I also have a very close friend who struggles with <a href="http://www.lifescript.com/health/centers/fibromyalgia/articles/questions_for_your_doctor.aspx" rel="nofollow">symptoms of fibromyalgia</a> and mental health disorders. I am often concerned for her safety and well being. I want to know how to help her better. Congrats to MHFA for hitting their 10 yr milestone. I am getting ready to take my first MHFA course.

The New Year is a great time for change. I am trying to be a better care provider in 2012. My goal is the help my loved one find employment and <a href="http://www.mnui.com/products.asp?prod=amigo" rel="nofollow">short term medical insurance</a>. What goals does everyone else have in place for 2012? We need to keep these tips in mind year round. Thanks for this posting. The New Year is a great time for change.
