At a time when the rate of mental disorders continues to rise among young people, certified NSCA chaplaincy programs provide a source of non-threatening spiritual and emotional support for students.
A recent report from the BBC shows that suicide is on the rise among adolescents and even children in the United States, with more suicides taking place in 2023 than in any other year on record. With a recognition of the many pressures and struggles faced by students - including anxiety over academic performance, climate change, and social media - school chaplains can offer guidance in an informal context.
“School chaplains are not therapists; however, they are able to provide a nonjudgmental outlet for individuals to unload stress and anxiety,” says an NSCA spokesperson. “Even in an increasingly secular society, faith in chaplains and their ability to help with personal problems remains strong. A chaplain might even be able to address a spiritual crisis better than a medical professional or school counselor.”
Schools chaplains function as part of a holistic approach to healthcare on campuses, one that recognizes religious and spiritual beliefs as an enduring part of modern life. At the same time, chaplains are non-denominational; they never promote a specific religion or set of beliefs, nor do they proselytize or seek to convert students.
In addition to supporting student health and overall well-being, chaplains also support teachers and staff. Working in close collaboration with administrators, they provide a “ministry of presence,” with 24/7 support in times of crisis, helping to reduce teacher turnover rates and burnout.
Full-time school chaplains also help keep campuses safer. They have the necessary skills to identify potentially volatile situations within the student body and can work quickly to diffuse dangerous scenarios.
The NSCA certified school chaplain hiring process is designed to integrate seamlessly with existing school frameworks. Meetings with chaplains are always confidential and the focus is on building a school culture of care and compassionate support.
