SCA is leading the grassroots, national and global, multidisciplinary advocacy effort that:

• Is uniting the voices of individual and organizational members to advance the integration of spiritual care in health care so that more people receive the help they need
• Empowers chaplains
• Gives chaplains a seat “at the table” when major decisions are being made about policy and reimbursement for inpatient, outpatient and home care
• Thanks Chaplains and other involved members of the interdisciplinary health care team for their extraordinary work by creating and publicizing the new annual Spiritual Care Day (May 10)

Add your voice by becoming a member.

For far too long, chaplaincy has been a fragmented and divided field that has not spoken up for itself.

If we do not speak up, professional chaplaincy will be marginalized.

If we do not speak up, the next generation of chaplains will suffer.

If we do not speak up, people in spiritual distress will not receive the spiritual care that they desire.

That must change!
