S.A.F.E. (Spirituality and Faith Empowers) Training

S.A.F.E., an acronym for Spirituality and Faith Empowers, is a 2-Day cultural competency training program that was designed to equip mental health providers with the tools to (1) become knowledgeable about the role of spirituality and faith in the lives of the children, youth, adults, and families they serve; (2) identify and eliminate the barriers that prevent· providers from including spirituality and faith in the delivery of services to consumers/clients of faith; (3) learn culturally responsive strategies for assessing and including spirituality in services; and (4) become equipped to engage and collaborate with the faith community in a meaningful way to effectively meet the needs of those within communities of faith.

S.A.F.E. also helps the faith community to (1) become knowledgeable about its role in addressing the mental, physical, and social needs of its diverse community members; (2) identify and eliminate the barriers that prevent communities of faith from assessing mental health services; (4) develop strategies for reducing stigma; (5) learn culturally responsive strategies for working with diverse community members within their respective communities of faith; and (6) become equipped to engage and collaborate with the system of care professionals in the delivery of services to their various community members.

This training will be facilitated by Dr. Gloria Morrow, a Licensed Clinical Psychologist and a nationally known cultural competence trainer. If you are a provider of mental health and/or substance use services or a faith leader, please join us!
