It honours them for developing Mental Health First Aid skills in their staff. The program also acknowledges its commitment to embedding MHFA training into the organisation's culture. A set of criteria that encourages good practices to enhance sustainable actions toward mentally healthy workplaces are steps towards different levels of recognition. MHFA India is there with you all the way to offer support in building mentally healthy workplaces.
