Certificate Description and Requirements

The Mental Health Ally Program is designed to provide mental health education, empower mental health allyship, and help Cal State Fullerton (CSUF) students by creating a campus culture that supports mental health. The three-hour program is designed to explore how to become an informed mental health ally, review what mental health looks like, and identify specific strategies regarding how to become a mental health ally.  
  
The topics covered include, but are not limited to, mental health stigma and culture, current mental health concerns and related statistics, steps to refer students in crisis to appropriate resources, and holistic CAPS services. Participating faculty and staff will receive a Mental Health Ally sticker for their workspace, a digital badge and upon Canvas reflection completion can earn a Faculty Development Center (FDC) certificate.
