    What are Social Determinants of Health (SDoH)?

Do you have a doctor? Do you have a way to get to your appointment? Are you getting your health information in a way you can understand? These are a few examples of the effects of SDoH.

Identifying Mental Health Needs for Faith Leaders

Three people in prayer

As you know, faith institutions are more than places of worship, they are vibrant communities with shared visions and a commitment to build a bridge between faith and wellness. Because we have a community partnership or connection with you, we are asking you to please join Texas Health Community Health Ministry to empower faith communities in addressing mental health concerns among congregants and work alongside of us to build that bridge. We are asking you to provide us with feedback on what you believe to be the most critical issues on mental health among your congregants.

This request for information is based on Texas Health taking a deeper dive into results from previous surveys you participated in. All information is confidential and used only to provide resources/education materials to you. Thank you and we look forward to hearing from you!
