An Online Community Event—April 30th
Mental health has many stigmas. Unlike medical issues, mental issues are often laden with misinformation, assumptions, complexities and shame. Stigmas include the idea that mental illnesses aren’t really organic, or that those who have them lack behavioral, spiritual or moral disciplines. Assumptions are made that therapy is “just talking”, without science or proven treatments. Medications may be seen as only covering, not curing the problems and relegated to those who are not strong enough to cope. These stigmas and many more are hurtful and destructive to all of us, because we are all affected by mental health.
Join Wellspring on Thursday, April 30th @ 7 pm (sign in @ 6:45 pm for preshow and auction) to Shatter the Stigmas of mental health through our live stream event hosted by nationally known speaker and author, Dr. Ed Stetzer! Enjoy the event from the comfort of home, including an online silent auction, thought provoking videos, and interactive discussions with our panel and our audience.
Register today to receive more information including a digital magazine, silent auction links, and a link to our live stream.
The Silent Auction is NOW OPEN!
Registration is FREE
Donations are appreciated as these funds will go to support reduced services for clients during this COVID-19 season.
