Promoting mental health: A resource for spiritual and pastoral care

A resource to raise awareness of mental health among Christian clergy and church members, and to raise awareness of spirituality and its role in mental health among health professionals. It aims to provide encouragement for what people are already doing within the church and faith communities around the issue of mental health; and to ensure the church is more welcoming to people experiencing mental health problems and mental distress, and their carers. It was produced in 2004 by the Church of England Archbishop’s Council, Mentality and the National Institute for Mental Health in England and is available from the Catholic Mental Health Project.
