- Strategies for being there for others. Topics include: How to be there for others who are struggling with their mental health (through 5 Golden Rules), how to effectively initiate a conversation when concerned about another’s mental health, how to connect others to help, how to set appropriate boundaries, how to respond in a crisis.
