Mental Health Matters: Part One & Two
|
Part 1 Older adults are particularly vulnerable to mental health concerns because of a number of factors: loss of independence, loss of a job, loss of a home, loss of a spouse or physical illness. Faith communities are uniquely positioned to provide spiritual and emotional support for older adults experiencing challenging times. This resource provides background information and resources.
Part 2 looks at how can we be a bridge over troubled water when it comes to mental health concerns. Our faith tradition values our desire to care for others in need. This value gives us meaning and purpose when we reach out to people living with loneliness or mental health conditions. To do this well, it is good to have some skills. | ||||
