Mental health affects our families, congregations, schools, workplaces, and communities. Faith communities are uniquely positioned to offer accompaniment, connection, hope, and a sense of belonging--but we need strong partnerships and resources to meet the challenges our communities face.
Join mental health professionals, faith leaders, community leaders, and residents as we begin developing a shared strategy to strengthen mental health support across the Thumb Region.
