No Buy-In or Budget for Marketing? Here Are 20 Things You Can Do to Change That!

Libraries have become mental health hubs among their communities, encountering a diverse range of patrons from mild to serious mental illness. While interactions can range from well-intentioned engagements to incidents involving aggression or violence, a traditional library education does not formally equip you with addressing their needs or reporting structures. Daily exposure without adequate training makes library staff feel unprepared. The integration of mental health training allows libraries to respond with compassion and understanding. Discover how to proactively enhance your readiness by recognizing mental health needs and integrating proper responses, fostering a healthier work environment. 


From this webinar, you will learn:
•    Understanding mental illness prevalence in libraries
•    How to equip yourself through skill development and identification
•    Develop strategies and training for patron sensitivity
•    Effective communication skills for collaborating patron needs
