Soul Shop™ for Youth Workers is a one-day workshop to equip youth pastors, youth leaders, camp directors, camp counselors and anyone else who works with young people to minister to those impacted by suicide.

Special attention will focus on youth-specific issues of impulsivity, contagion, social media, mandated reporting and confidentiality. The training includes the creation of worship resource, training in suicide awareness and basic conversation skills, and how to extend the invitation to those who have been suicidal in the past to share their stories. This workshop engages the question of how to cultivate a soul-safe culture within your youth ministry.

“This Soul Shop™ training is as necessary as CPR or FIRST AID for any adult in our congregation.” – Genevieve Brooks, Director of Youth Ministry

“The Soul Shop™ workshop I attended last fall was the most impactful training I’ve ever received as it relates to mental health.”– Bailey Morton, Assistant Director of Youth Ministry
