The goal of this course is to provide public safety professionals who work in jails or prisons, probation, and parole agencies with education around mental health disorders. In this course, you will learn what a mental health disorder is, its causes, and some of the myths that prevail about it today. You will also learn general information about, and symptoms of, common mental health disorders that you may notice among justice-involved individuals so that you can make appropriate and timely referrals for assessment, intervention, and treatment.
