Mental Health in Children's Ministries
In this session, I will share a framework for how you bring hurting kids closer, and how you can see mental health issues turn into opportunities for young ones to flourish.

She then moved into the Children's Ministry director role for BC/Yukon with the Pentecostal Assemblies of Canada. Her heart to be on the frontlines with young people led her into working in mental health and resilience in schools for the past 25 years.
