Equipping You for the Mental Health Needs in Your CongregationPastors, clergy, church staff, chaplains, and lay leaders are desperately needed partners in the mission of decreasing the mental health crisis in our community. Serving on the front lines in your church gives you an up close and personal view of the current mental health concerns and relational pain facing your congregation and the greater community at large. You have a unique opportunity to speak hope and healing into these struggles. Cornerstone of Hope would like to partner with you, equip you, encourage you, and strengthen you to see yourself as an integral part of the team bringing the hope of Jesus into the mental health needs all around us.

- Receive practical step-by-step tools to help you know when and where to refer if necessary.
- Process how to talk about the intersection of mental health and faith in a healthy and helpful way—how the phrases and words we use can move people toward truth and healing and which ones can hinder healing.
