New Community Bible Fellowship is helping to erase the stigma around mental illness by providing resources from the National Alliance on Mental Illness (NAMI) to help those in need. If you struggle with mental illness or know someone that does, please visit https://namigreatercleveland.org/ for more information and helpful resources or call the Cleveland NAMI helpline at 216-875-7776.
