The Black Church is still critically important for African-Americans, but the roles it plays may be changing particularly regarding mental health. </span><br /> <span style="background-color: white;"><br /></span> <span style="background-color: white;">This session presents the findings of a survey study conducted in two phases: an electronic administration and a paper/pencil administration in the pews of several Black Churches in the mid-Atlantic region. The study identifies the perceptions of African-American Christians related to professional/secular and faith-based pastoral counseling. Specifically, the presentation will identify patterns of responses, reveal the preferred source of support for various personal and mental health issues, and specify ways in which to incorporate the findings into social education and practice.</span><br /> <span style="background-color: white; color: #222222; font-family: inherit; line-height: 18.4799995422363px;"><span style="line-height: 18.4799995422363px;"><br /></span><span style="line-height: 18.4799995422363px;">The sample audio was originally published as NACSW's </span>January, 2015 Podcast of the Month<span style="line-height: 18.4799995422363px;">.</span><span style="line-height: 18.4799995422363px;"> </span><a href="http://www.nacsw.org/2008/2008_membership.htm" style="color: #888888; line-height: 18.4799995422363px; text-decoration: none;" target="_blank">Join NACSW today</a><span style="line-height: 18.4799995422363px;"> </span><span style="line-height: 18.4799995422363px;">to gain access to this full podcast, as well as other great resources for integrating Christian faith and social work practice.</span></span>
