CHAPEL cares for people in need by connecting them to resources and community support and aims to reduce the stigma and misconceptions around asking for help.
Community Health Assistance Programming, and Engagement Leadership (C. H. A. P. E. L.)
CHAPEL is dedicated to creating safe spaces for positive mental health and community well-being through a community-driven approach.
By addressing mental health collectively, we reduce stigma, promote early intervention, and offer accessible resources.
Faith communities play a vital role in fostering belonging and understanding, helping individuals feel less isolated and more empowered to seek support.
Our holistic and culturally sensitive solutions cater to the diverse needs of our community, ensuring everyone receives the care they deserve.
We welcome you in building a supportive and resilient community for all people.
