Faith Connections On Mental Illness
Meeting on the 3rd Friday of Each Month

We are an inter-faith coalition of faith communities
dedicated to increasing understanding of mental illness through
Education, Advocacy, and Support.

We invite you to join us.   Everyone knows someone.

Chapel Hill area churches formed Faith Connections to stop the stigma of mental illness and battle the sense of isolation and rejection it engenders.

Individuals and houses of worship from all faiths are invited to join this coalition.


Through education and advocacy in the community and individual congregations, Faith Connections offers support and comfort to the mentally ill and those who care for and about them.

Group members participate in a variety of events throughout the year.


Faith Connections' three foci are:

  • Advocacy - being active in the kind of social justice initiatives that will remove stigma (such as the NAMI Walks,public speaking, etc.);



  • Education - spawning educational programs within churches so that they can offer better . . .



  • Support - to members who have a mental illness or to families who have someone with this need.   
With the sunrise of each new day comes the dawn of hope.  Psalm 97:11
