The UMB Student Counseling Center is offering a virtual workshop for UMSON faculty and staff on Assisting Students in Distress (Red Folder) Training: De-escalation on Friday, March 28, from noon - 1 p.m. The session is referred to as the "red folder training" because it offers important information you might keep handy for reference.
In this training, participants will learn how to assist students who may be experiencing mental health issues by recognizing symptoms and referring for therapy and other resources.
This session will also address de-escalation techniques that are helpful with students that may be particularly upset, anxious, or agitated.
Once registered, you will receive a confirmation email with the Zoom link.
