CRM Empowering Leaders

Community Alliance Builders (CAB) serves to nurture the partnerships, projects, and friendships that serve the common good and God’s redemptive purposes.

The proving ground for CAB has grown out of Rex & Connie’s journey through grief at the loss of their son Todd, 25, to mental illness and suicide in 2005. This experience, marked by God’s healing mercies through the Church and beyond, has resulted in a community and a movement of both Christian and secular organizations. The outcome has resulted in a strong collaboration of like-minded people.

This partnership we have named: Community Alliance for Healthy Minds

More than an organization, Community Alliance for Healthy Minds (CAHM) is a gathering of San Diego County’s leaders in mental health and suicide prevention and those like ourselves, who are personally impacted by mental illness and suicide loss. Hence, our CAHM slogan: “Together we can change the landscape of mental health in our communities.”

A biblical plumb-line we operate by and share with our secular partners and our faith community is what our son Todd modeled for us as he served with InnerCHANGE among homeless youth in San Francisco “…to do justly, to love mercy, and to walk humbly with our God.” (Micah 6:8)
