1 in 5 Americans is affected by mental health conditions. Fight the Stigma. Stigma creates an environment of shame, fear, and silence. This prevents our loved ones and members in our community from finding help. Mental Health Ministry is a new ministry that is developing. Let us know if you would like to be involved!
