Janelle Bitikofer\u2019s June webinar, \u201cProviding Mutual Support when People Are Experiencing Mental Illness,\u201d was so engaging, and viewers had so many questions, that we will be offering a part two. In this continued conversation, we\u2019ll discuss practical ways for congregations to engage in mutual care.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

This webinar is co-sponsored by the Anabaptist Disabilities Network and Church of the Brethren Discipleship Ministries. It will take place online on Thursday, Oct. 7, at 2-3 p.m. (Eastern time). Credentialed ministers may earn 0.1 continuing education credit for attending.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Bitikofer is executive director of We Rise International; a lead mental health trainer for Churches Care, a mental health and addictions training program for congregations; and author of Streetlights: Empowering Christians to Respond to Mental Illnesses and Addictions<\/em>, a mental health and addictions support manual for churches.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
