Higher Education and Leadership Ministries (HELM) is an organization dedicated to supporting and developing leaders within the Christian Church (Disciples of Christ) through higher education. HELM works with colleges, universities, and theological institutions to connect students to scholarships, leadership training, and internship programs that empower them to serve both in ministry and in broader leadership roles.
