We are developing a training that delivers psychological first aid training intended specifically for frontline workers responding to the COVID-19 pandemic in American Indian/Alaska Native communities. This training was adapted from the IASC's basic psychosocial skills guide for frontline workers responding to the pandemic globally. The training can be completed online through JHSPH's CoursePlus, which allows interested persons to register, complete the approximately two hour training, and receive a certificate of completion all on their own.
