The first week of May is mental health awareness week in Canada.
According to Laura Howe, approximately 43.8 million people per year experience some kind of mental health concern. However, 49% of pastors say they rarely (if ever) speak to their congregation about mental health.
Laura Howe is the founder of Hope Made Strong, an organization dedicated to equipping leaders with the mental health resources needed to create resilient individuals and churches with knowledgeable and confident leadership.
