More than 50,000 people died by suicide in the United States in 2023—nearly 17 times the number of people killed in the 9/11 terrorist attacks. This is the highest number ever recorded and the highest rate since 1941 — the aftershocks of the Great Depression. America’s mental health is at a crisis point. We’ve got to change this–and we can.
Healthy Faith is a media, musical, and educational campaign designed to illuminate the scientifically-documented mental health benefits of engaging in regular faith practice centered around belief in the healing power of God.
