Experiencing emotional crisis is universal; all people experience it at some time during their life. Whether it is the loss of a loved one, the stress of being a single parent, the fear of financial instability, the depression of social isolation, or a myriad of other circumstances that affect one’s ability to cope, emotional crisis is healed through authentic connection. Emotional CPR is a framework used to address emotional crisis within us, and to assist others who may be experiencing it. It recognizes and integrates the concepts embodied in trauma-informed approaches, cultural empathy and humility, suicide prevention, and peer support concepts to provide a safe, inclusive experience for learning. This public health community education program prepares folks to assist others in emotional distress or crisis and is a powerful framework to integrate into organizations providing peer support.
