CONGREGATION ASSESSMENT

We Rise International offers a confidential, survey-based assessment to evaluate your congregation's ability to respond to mental health and addiction needs. Results, presented via a 20+ page report and consultation meeting, provide leadership with how respondents feel the leaders and members are doing in supporting people and addressing stigma; information on congregation strengths and areas for growth; and guidance on ways to help and support individuals and families experiencing mental health and addiction/substance use challenges.


For more information regarding an assessment for your church or community group, please email our Research and Education Coordinator at health-team@weriseinternational.org
