Coaches, you are the frontline.
You create the environment for athletes to learn and grow.
You’re the teacher, the supporter, and the direct link to creating a climate of well-being on your team. And, you’re managing athletes’ return to sport while navigating your own. It’s a lot.
Imagine a sport culture where all coaches are equipped with the skills and support needed to recognize and respond to athletes who may be navigating mental health or substance use challenges.
We’re committed to creating and sustaining the necessary infrastructure to make this happen.
We’ve got your back.
“This MHFA training was such a sound investment in my coaching. Time well spent, lots of professional, no-nonsense approaches.”
