NAMI Main Line PA is partnering with the National Alliance on Mental Illness to host a two-day conference focused on the intersection between faith and mental health.
What do leaders and members of faith communities need to know about mental health challenges? What can leaders and members of faith communities do to help those affected?
Sessions will include –
- Mental Health 101: Signs, Symptoms & Diagnoses
- Addressing the Stigma: Having the Conversation-Breaking the Silence
- Religious and Spiritual Teachings and How They Impact Mental Health Care: What Helps and What Can Cause Harm?
We will hear on these topics and more from national and local mental health professionals, faith leaders, and people with lived experience. Join us for in-depth discussions, sharing of insights, and the building of meaningful partnerships.
