There is a 12-hour mental health first aid class being held April 13th, 20th, 27th, and May 4th in Columbia, MD for $50. This is a nationally deployed and well-known course to help you recognize symptoms and know how to respond. A good idea for the general public. The public is taught CPR and First Aid — this is the mental health version.
Here is the flyer on the class helf at Howard County General Hospital
