An Exploration of Resilient Minds®: Building the Psychological Strength of Mineral Explorers and Remote Workers

Presented by: Canadian Mental Health Association

This overview of Resilient Minds® will shine a light on the compelling case for this psychoeducation and evidence of the positive impact of this course on participants. 

Resilient Minds® is a practical, skill-building course that teaches participants to:

• Recognize the effects of psychological stress/trauma on self and peers. 
• Communicate with peers who may be struggling.
• Respond promptly, safely, and appropriately to distressed citizens. 
• Apply personal strategies to managing stress, mitigating trauma, and boosting resilience. 

Adaptations of Resilient Minds® for environments that pose a high risk for mental health challenges include Wildland Fire Fighters, Volunteer Fire Fighters, Indigenous First Responders and Emergency Operators. This is the first adaptation directed toward natural resource industries.
