简要总结
The purpose of this study is to evaluate a culturally grounded training program, xaʔtus (meaning First Face) for Mental Health. This program will train community members in how to recognize and respond to youth and adults experiencing mental health crises and ways to serve as a bridge between these individuals and the help they need. All Healing Lodge staff are being asked to complete First Face training.
To evaluate First Face, the investigators will ask all trainees to complete surveys before and after training, and again 3 months later. These surveys will measure knowledge about mental health and addiction, as well as the ability and confidence to respond appropriately to mental health crises. The study will help the investigators understand whether the First Face training program influences mental health and attitudes, as well as responses to mental health crisis situations.
详细描述
With funding from the National Institutes for Health, the investigators created First Face for Mental Health. First Face is a culturally-appropriate community-based mental health training that prepares trainees to provide assistance to someone having a mental health crisis. The more community members within Tribal nations who are trained in a culturally sensitive program to provide support to youth in recovery and members struggling with mental health problems or crises, the better positioned that community is to create a supportive recovery environment for its youth. The investigators are in the process of launching First Face trainings and evaluations among several Tribal communities. Additionally, they will be training staff from the Healing Lodge of the Seven Nations (HL) in the First Face program. This particular application concerns the evaluation of First Face training among HL staff. The investigators will measure primary and secondary outcomes at pre-training, post-training, and 3-month follow-up.

结局指标
主要结局
Attitudes Towards Serious Mental Illness - Adolescent Version
时间窗: Included at pre-training, post-training (i.e. immediately after training), and 3-months post-training
The Attitudes Towards Serious Mental Illness - Adolescent Version (ATSMI-AV) is a validated 21-item self-report scale designed to measure attitudes towards mental illness. Participants respond on a 5-point Likert scale. The scale measures five aspects of mental health attitudes: threat, social construction/concern, wishful thinking, categorical thinking and out of control. The investigators will calculate an overall score as well as factor-specific scores, if they observe adequate internal reliability. Each item has response categories ranging from Completely disagree (coded as 1) to Completely agree (coded as 5), and a mean of all 21 items is calculated to create the scale. The scale has a possible range of 1 to 5 Higher scores indicate higher levels of stigma towards mental illness.
Perceived Competence to Respond
时间窗: Included at pre-training, post-training (i.e. immediately after training), and 3-months post-training
A 10-item measure that taps respondents' confidence in their competence to respond to and help people experiencing mental health problems (i.e., Confidence in Recognizing, Intervening and Connecting Individual(s) with Resources Scale). Each response option has a possible range of 1 (Not at all confident) to 5 (Very confident), and a mean score will be calculated from all 10 items to yield a scale with a possible range of 1 to 5. Higher values indicate greater perceived competence respond to and help people experiencing mental health problems.

First Face Knowledge Assessment
时间窗: Included at pre-training, post-training (i.e. immediately after training), and 3-months post-training
This is a 12-question quiz testing participants' knowledge of concepts taught in the First Face training. Some questions offer the opportunity to earn more than one point. The investigators will score each response as correct or incorrect and sum scores (possible range = 0-17) on each occasion. Higher scores indicate better knowledge of First Face concepts.
