Resiliency Essentials Helping to Keep You Healthy
Resiliency is the ability to recover quickly during stressful times, and essentials are activities that are so important you need to do them on a regular basis. At Makin’ It Happen, (MIH) we are working with our partners in the community to promote Resiliency Essential programs focusing on prevention and mental health wellness.
MIH is proud to bring Youth Mental Health First Aid and teen Mental Health First Aid (tMHFA) to the Greater Manchester Region. We are also pleased to announce the launching of the QPR (Question, Persuade, Refer) suicide prevention program. Read more below!

teen Mental Health First Aid (tMHFA)

MIH recently assembled our first cohort of 16 tMHFA trainers. This cohort has completed the three-day, rigorous training provided by our national partner National Council for Behavioral Health. The trainers plan to bring the program to schools and youth service organizations. MIH believes empowering teens to help their peers will save lives, families, and communities.

QPR (Question, Persuade, Refer)

In December 2020, Makin’ It Happen facilitated our first QPR Suicide Prevention training, offered to all adults in the Greater Manchester region. Those who attended, including local firefighters, librarians, and members of the community, became gatekeepers. Gatekeepers are trained to recognize warning signs that someone may be contemplating suicide, offer hope, and get help to save a life.
