However, far too often, fear and shame associated with mental health conditions keep individuals from seeking care. From a public-health perspective, faith community leaders are often “first responders” when individuals and families face mental health or substance use issues, especially in medically underserved areas. In that role, faith leaders can help dispel misunderstandings, reduce stigma associated with mental illness and treatment, and facilitate access to treatment for those in need. Among adults who belong to a religious community, <strong>only half (52%) say their religious community discusses mental health openly and without stigma</strong>. By brining together mental health professionals and faith leaders we are building bridges toward more cultually competent care, and working to remove the fear, and shame sometimes associated with mental health conditions in faith communities. </p> </div> <blockquote> <p>We know that research shows that people turn to their faith leaders in times of crisis. They also turn to the medical system. When the two are in sync, it makes for a better, more holistic treatment strategy. — Rev.
