What are the benefits of completing the Promoting Healthy Congregations (PHC) Assessment?
The well-being of their congregations is central to all faith-leaders and faith organizations, regardless of denomination. Because spiritual, emotional and physical health are interconnected, faith-based organizations often seek ways to support congregation members in being more physically healthy. Completing the PHC assessment can be an important initial step in supporting healthier lifestyles among congregation members. The PHC helps to identify strengths to build on as well as targeting areas and possible actions for positive change. Michigans current health statistics and their associated economic burden provide another compelling benefit for taking steps to improve the health of its residents.
