Faith Impact Leaders Retreat
Why We Exsist
In 2019, 51.5 million Americans lived with a mental illness. Data shows that people who are part of a faith community and are experiencing mental health, substance use or family challenges often turn to their faith communities first. These families of faith tend to have healthier outcomes when positive faith is aligned. When trained leaders apply their knowledge, skills, and abilities you can help families recover, feel safe, and foster family resilience during mental health, substance use and healthy child-wellbeing challenges.
Our Faith Impact Leaders Retreat covers the following conversations, help you become an imWELL provider, develop tailored programs to meet your ministry's capacity and receive donations from Jo-Khy-Ki's profits.

Our place of greatest impact
Be the 1 in one hundred faith leaders in your state gathering on Thursday, May 5, 2022, for Faith Impact Summit 2022. Hear from subject matter experts, academic influencers, and faith leaders with lived experience on how faith impacts mental health, substance use and adverse childhood experiences.
Post summit participants will receive a free strategic planning session to host their own Faith Impact Retreat to bring awareness, resources, support and training to their leadership team and laity. Together we will make the greatest impact on families in your faith community.
imWELL will gather data at our local two-day Faith Impact Retreats, quarterly collaborative, and report on May 5th at our annual Faith Impact Summit. Together we will raise awareness on how faith communities are actively engaging and supporting families living with mental health, substance use and fostering healthy environments for children.
