Equipping churches to support mental health since 2011
Anchor International equips faith communities to promote mental wellness for adults and teens through peer support groups
Since 2011, Anchor International has been helping people affected by mental health struggles find support and belonging in their local faith communities. Founded by two seminary students with lived experience and a vision for peer support, Anchor International exists to offer supportive environments where people can pursue both mental and spiritual wellness. Our programs are designed to help foster meaningful relationships, provide skills for managing wellness, and establish anchors of hope.
