The Church and Community as an Intersectional Resource for Mental Health and Trauma
| abstract |
The context of this project is the Promised Land Missionary Baptist Church, located in Newark, New Jersey. The problem is that many people in and outside the church suffer from various degrees of mental illness. Unfortunately, the Promised Land Missionary Baptist Church has suffered from various degrees of mental illness. Furthermore, Black Baptist Churches are presently ill-equipped to help them. Moreover, the Church could familiarize itself with tools to help equip in the healing process. With these tools the Black Baptist Church would be able to help its members and community in the healing process. Project data will be collected using online surveys. The survey link will include instructions on how to complete the survey. After the data is received workshop, questionnaires, group discussions, and focused groups will be formed, to allow time of sharing with members the resources that are available. After participating in this project, participants will be equipped to effectively identify the resources that can be used to meet the needs of its members and its community.
