Clergy Counseling Grant
We know the impact of the Eaton Fire has been felt deeply by our clergy and faith leaders. You have been a source of comfort, guidance, and hope for your communities, and we want to make sure you also receive the care and support you need.
The Clergy Counseling Grant is here to help you connect with professional counseling in a way that is accessible and affordable. Whether you are processing grief, navigating stress, or simply needing a safe space to talk, this grant can help cover the cost of sessions with a licensed therapist you trust.
Please note: Funding is first come, first served until available grant resources are fully allocated.
