Mental Health & Well-Being

LCCC MH & Well-Being Survey Results
Briefing of Key Observations
 
Parishioners, we present in this document highlights and details (see QR code) of what we learned from the MH and Well-Being Survey. We extend our heartfelt gratitude to UST for assisting us in identifying the mental health and well-being needs of our parishioners. Also, thank you to the 171 participants who shared their feedback. Based on our feedback, we are planning a series of programs tailored to the needs identified. During 2025-2026, we will offer sessions on Anxiety and Depression, including "Whole Hearted," a program developed by Catholic Charities for the Catholic Church. We will also continue to provide educational events based on parishioner needs and connect individuals to Mental Health and Well-Being resources when requested. Your contributions have been invaluable, and we look forward to building on this foundation together.
