PROSPER Faith-Based Trainings
PROSPER Faith-Based Trainings
Grounded in a Biblical worldview and built on evidence-based practices, PROSPER Faith-Based Trainings equip churches and faith leaders to respond to suicide not just as a mental health issue, but as a social and spiritual concern. When individuals face isolation, stress, or emotional pain, connection and compassion matter. These trainings offer practical tools to help your faith community recognize distress, build supportive relationships, and respond with confidence and care.
