When?
Wednesday, May 20th 6:00pm-7:30pm

May is Mental Health Awareness Month and we’re spending this month’s Community Connections having an honest conversation about what that means in our own backyard.

What we’ll cover:
• Who is and what they do
• Real success stories making an impact today
• How you can get involved in our community
• What’s next on the front lines of breaking the stigma

Bring a friend. Bring a question. Walk out with a community.

At Go Further Foundation, we believe showing up for one another matters, especially in the moments when it’s hardest.

Knowing how to respond in a mental health crisis isn’t something we’re always taught, but it’s something that can truly save a life.

That’s why we’re proud to partner with Johnson County Mental Health Center to sponsor FREE Adult Mental Health First Aid trainings throughout 2026.
This training is more than just a course — it’s a chance to feel more confident, prepared, and supported when someone around you needs help.

Big win for the community right here 👇

We’re excited to share that Johnson County Mental Health Center is partnering with the Go Further Foundation to offer FREE Mental Health First Aid training for 100 community members in 2026.

Mental health challenges often show up in everyday moments, with friends, family, coworkers, or neighbors. Mental Health First Aid gives you the tools to recognize the signs, respond with confidence, and connect someone to the help they need.

Think of it like CPR, but for mental health.

🧠 What you’ll learn:
• How to recognize signs of mental health and substance use challenges
• How to support someone in crisis
• How to connect people to professional help

📅 Four trainings available (April–November)
📍 First session: Saturday, April 18 at Netsmart in Overland Park
💲 Cost: FREE (thanks to Go Further Foundation covering the $50 fee)

Spots are limited, and we expect these to fill quickly.

👉 Register now: https://connect.jocogov.org/gff-adult-mhfa

Let’s build a community that knows how to show up for one another.
