Many Veterans and their family members seek help for their problems from clergy because they feel the faith community can provide anonymity, confidentiality and a stigma-free environment. Yet clergy members sometimes have limited knowledge about readjustment difficulties and the unique health issues such as post-traumatic stress, or depression common to returning warriors. This event can help prepare you to support them. The Community Training Partner Initiative offers critical resource to educate and support the faith community. Training Objectives Clergy and Mental Health Care--"Signposts Toward Collaboration" helps clergy explore how they, as leaders of faith communities, can create and sustain a welcoming community for those with mental health problems.
