Spiritual Care in Private Education

Join the Chaplaincy Innovation Lab and Rev. Steve Allen, 30 year independent school chaplain and consultant on educational chaplaincy, for a conversation on articulating the value of spiritual care in a primary through secondary private educational environment.
We’ll explore questions that often come up when institutions are considering beginning or restructuring spiritual care for their students, including those such as:

• Why does my school need a chaplain?
• How can my school utilize me better?
• As chaplain, I’m kind of pigeonholed, how can I expand my role at the school?
• I’m basically a lone ranger, how can I find support, care and community for the work I’m doing?
• What about our students who aren’t religious?
• Our school isn’t religious, why should we provide a chaplain?
• Don’t we need a chaplain from our same religious tradition?

We encourage chaplains of all career stages to join us, but especially encourage students and those exploring chaplaincy outside of statistically larger sectors like healthcare.
