Project Objective:

Psychological First Aid (PFA) is an evidence-informed approach that is built on the concept of
human resilience. PFA aims to reduce stress symptoms and assist in a healthy recovery following
a traumatic event, natural disaster, public health emergency, or even a personal crisis.

At the end of the sessions, participants shall be able to:

 Recognize the Urgent Issues among the Youth today

 Understand Mental Health and Psychological Support Services
 Acquire skills needed during difficult circumstances.

Rationale
Psychological First Aid is an initial disaster response intervention with the goal to promote
safety, stabilize survivors of disasters and connect individuals to help and resources. PFA is
delivered to affected individuals by mental health professionals and other first responders. The
purpose of PFA is to assess the immediate concerns and needs of an individual in the aftermath
of a disaster, and not to provide on-site therapy.

The goal of Psychological First Aid for the learners is to create and sustain an environment of:
1) Safety
2) Calm & Comfort
3) Connectedness
4) Self-Empowerment, and
5) Hope

Psychological First Aid addresses basic needs and reduces psychological distress by providing a
caring comforting presence, and education on common stress reactions. It empowers the
individual by supporting strengths and encouraging existing coping skills. It also provides
connections to natural support networks, and referrals to professional services when needed.

Psychological First Aid is tool that each of us can use to reduce our stress level. By
understanding your stress reactions and utilizing Psychological First Aid principles, you can
enhance resilience in yourself, your family, workplace, and community.
