The theme, Healing Together: Faith, Wellness & Belonging, reflects our collective desire to address the realities of violence, isolation, division, grief, and growing mental health challenges while highlighting the importance of community care, belonging, partnership, and access to support. Throughout the day, participants will engage conversations on youth wellness, family relationships, community safety, reentry, faith leadership, accountability, and access to care. The summit will also launch Connected for Care: A Masjid Mental Wellness Partnership Initiative, a new effort designed to strengthen relationships between Philadelphia mosques and trusted mental wellness professionals.
