Shluchim Toolbox:
Mental Health Insights
Tailored for Shluchim seeking to enhance their understanding of mental health, The Shluchim Toolbox is a certificate program that offers a comprehensive exploration of common challenges and mental health issues that arise within our communities, families, and among our peers. This course will equip you with the tools needed to be a strong support, learn to foster resilience and give you the ability to embrace a more impactful, empathetic leadership role.
There are 6 modules and approximately 3-4 hours of work per module. Participants are given one week to complete each module, ensuring ample time and flexibility to fit this into their busy schedules.
Modules include reading, watching videos, listening to “Voices from the Field”, reviewing content, and reflecting on what was learned by participating in live course discussions. After each module, a live group session will be held virtually with a facilitator with guest experts in the field. These sessions will provide an opportunity to deepen understanding, ask questions, and connect with fellow participants who can continue to be strong support after the course is completed.
