Can't access helper method in forem engine

My rails application has a helper method ‘current_project’ in the
projects_helper file. In my application_controller, I include the
ProjectsHelper module.

After installing the forem engine (for forums), when I navigate to
/forums
I get an error that current_project is not known.

What do I have to do to expose current_project to the forem engine?

Thanks,
