Salt and Light Collaborative's mission is simple: Build up people, Build up communities, and Back up faith-based organizations. Simple words that mean complicated things. We want to help build up people by helping them to heal from trauma, develop skills to foster emotional growth and health, and overcome obstacles in their lives. We want to build up communities by introducing programs that treat community issues holistically and together through collaboration. We are better together! We want to back up faith-based organizations through training, workshops, and coaching to equip them to address spiritual and mental health issues. We want to provide churches with the tools and resources to help them confidently serve their members.
