Faith communities should be places of safety, hope and healing. With rising mental health needs of youth, will you know what to do to support, or even save a young person’s life? 

The film series focuses on breaking the silence and stigma surrounding youth mental health and addresses issues specific to COVID/pandemic, isolation, suicide, trauma, social justice and racial justice movements, and the support needs particular to BIPOC and LGBTQ+ communities. Throughout the episodes, faith leader experts engage in peer-to-peer conversations about their personal experiences and innovative work in supporting youth, including learned wisdom and solutions engaging technology, brain development science, and the increased connectivity and sense of purpose that spiritual and faith communities can provide.
