The Engaging Mental Health with Hope Conference was held on March 25, 2023, at Gassaway Baptist Church. The purpose of the conference was to provide our WVBC family with opportunities for connection, education and support in mental health first-aid, emotional intelligence, anxiety and depression. Michelle Nietert served as the keynote speaker, and additional Licensed Professional Counselors (LPCs) from within our WVBC family served as workshop leaders. You can watch recordings of both of Michelle’s presentations and each of the workshops below.
