In The Know: Mental Health Literacy Training

May 5, 2021 @ 9:30 am - 2:30 pm

In the Know is a mental health literacy training program for farmers and the agricultural community.

It’s a five-hour virtual mental health literacy training workshop designed to fit better with the framing community’s limited availability due to rigid daily schedules, it contains critical mental health information, and it incorporates the agricultural community culture.

The objective of the program is to address farmer specific barriers to accessing mental health programming and resources. The program identifies the specific struggles of farming, and supports building confidence in recognizing mental health struggles, in talking about mental health, and in helping others.

This workshop is designed for farmers, producers, and those who have direct contact with the farming community such as family members, peers, veterinarians, breeders, seed or feed salespeople, financial institutions, accountants or community members.
