Program Overview
The Disaster Mental Health Institute (DMHI) is one of the leading agencies in the world in the field of disaster psychology. The DMHI has been involved in cutting-edge education, research and response since 1993. The online certificate prepares you to serve your community in responding to, and recovering from, disaster, terrorist attacks and public health emergencies. It is intended for existing mental health professionals or as a supplement to graduate training in approved mental health professions. The graduate certificate is also available to civic officials, emergency managers, first responders, and disaster relief workers, as recommended by the National Biodefense Science Board. Participants in this category, however, cannot receive the American Red Cross Disaster Mental Health Services certificate. Learn more at usd.edu/online-dmh.
