On April 6th, we proudly hosted an Adult Mental Health First Aid Training at the Mary L. Wilcox Memorial Library!

Thank you to all the dedicated library staff from the George F. Johnson Memorial Library , Vestal Public Library and Broome County Public Library , who joined us for this important training.
These incredible professionals are now better equipped to recognize the signs of mental health challenges and provide initial support to community members in need.

Mental Health First Aid is more than just training — it’s about creating safer, more compassionate spaces in our libraries and communities.
Huge thanks to everyone who participated and to the Mary L. Wilcox Memorial Library for hosting! 💙
