WISE Mental Health

Lifting the shame and stigma that so often surrounds mental illness.

The church should be a place where you can be your full self, your true self, your real self. In the months leading up to the pandemic, our mental health ministry organically formed out of the shared calling to provide hope, compassion and caring to those living with mental health challenges or other chronic brain disorders, addictions and trauma. Since that time, we have created space for members of our community to share their mental health challenges during worship, forged important partnerships with community health organizations such as ASPIRE Mental Health and South Shore Peer Recovery, and are pursuing official designation as a WISE Congregation for Mental Health through the United Church of Christ.

It's OK to not be OK.
