As a part of this program initiative\, in collaboration with the National Convocation of the Christian Church (Disciples of Christ)\, during Black History Month\, we are providing culturally relevant spaces to practice and discuss resources for Black mental health and wellness. \n\n\n\nStatistics show that clergy are often the first point of contact when congregants are facing mental health concerns. This is even higher in the Black community as historically\, the Black church was the only space to receive care. It is important for our leaders to know ways to reduce stigma\, normalize receiving mental health care\, and incorporate wellness practices in what they teach and how they lead. Join our panelists as they share the culturally relevant ways\, including sermons\, liturgy\, music and more\, to address mental health from the pulpit and in other leadership positions.
