Faith communities often play a key role in recognizing warning signs and offering guidance. By fostering open conversations about mental health, faith communities can create a compassionate environment where individuals feel safe to seek help. Soul Shop is a training specific for faith communities to help start the conversation about suicidal desperation, respond with support and help facilitate connections to maintain safety.</p> <p> This training is seven hours and registration costs include a participant manual and supplementary materials with community resources. Lunch will be provided.</p> <p> The training will not equip you to be a mental health specialist.</p> Thu, 03 Sep 2026 18:36:24 +0000
