Faith-Based Community Support
Faith-based communities and organizations have an essential role to play in building resilience and facilitating recovery for those living with challenges associated with mental health, substance use, and/or co-occurring disorders.
With accurate information and effective resources and partnerships these organizations can address the most pressing needs of their communities.
The Division can support faith-based and community partners by:
Help to:
- Identify local resources and funding opportunities that may support substance use prevention, intervention, treatment and recovery.
- Providing training and technical assistance on various behavioral health topics, such as suicide prevention, evidence-based substance use treatment, recovery supports, the role of faith-based organizations, and more.
- Linking to community-based partners to support service delivery and connection to resources.
