The Call for Compassion in Faith Communities
Faith communities hold the power to offer healing, hope, and belonging. Yet, for many, church has become a place of judgment and rejection—pushing people away when they need love the most. Our mission is to explore the intersection of faith, mental health, and LGBTQ+ inclusion, opening the door for faith communities to become sanctuaries of healing.
Let’s move from silence to conversation, from exclusion to connection, and from judgment to compassion.
Your Voice Matters!

What would it take for your faith community to become a place of healing, inclusion, and understanding? We want to hear from you. This journey is an invitation for all of us to reflect on what’s possible when we embrace love over judgment.
Take a moment to share your experiences and thoughts in this survey. Your insights are invaluable in shaping the future of our faith communities.
