80 percent of the world's population believes in a power greater than themselves and calls upon that power for healing.  It seems counterintuitive to not pay attention to that indigenous resource when promoting recovery and resilience in people with behavioral health challenges, their families and their communities. The mural illustrates that there are many ways to celebrate faith and spirituality, and all of them are valid and authentic to the individual and to the communities in which the celebrations occur.
