(Scroll Down to Download Our Brochure)
New York State Chaplain Task Force, is a 501c3 Not-For-Profit organization which trains, develops and maintains highly skilled volunteer Inter-Faith Community Crisis Chaplains to support and cooperate with individuals, as well as city, federal, religious, and secular agencies and organizations, both during peace times and during times of crisis. Our 5000 plus members, currently representing eleven major faith groups, bring images of order in the midst of chaos, and hope in the midst of despair. They practice active listening over speaking, and advise at all levels, offering honest and candid moral and spiritual guidance to all regardless of beliefs or culture, while never promoting their own faith, belief system, personal or political views.
Furthermore, our volunteer chaplains have all undergone extensive background checks at the local, state and federal levels, are certified in FEMA IS100c - Incident Command System and protocols, and FEMA IS505 – Religious and Cultural Literacy and Competency, as well as in Mental Health First Aid, First Aid, CPR & AED and in Opioid Overdose Reversal. We take pride in providing 24/7, 365 day a year emergency spiritual and emotional support services.
Our chaplains are currently volunteering (with approximately 10% employed) within various fields such as hospitals, nursing homes, assisted living facilities, hospice, law enforcement, VA Clinics, shelters, re-entry centers, transit authorities, soup kitchens, food pantries, corporate America, CBO’s, FBO’s, addiction treatment centers, prisons and jails.
MISSION STATEMENT
To educate, maintain and dispatch highly skilled Inter-Faith Spiritual Care First Responders who can provide quality and safe spiritual, emotional & mental health support services, both during peace times and during times of crisis 24-hours a day.
VISION STATEMENT
Recognizing the important and historic role of chaplains in helping individuals and their families maintain health and cope with illnesses, traumas, losses, and life transitions by integrating body, mind and spirit, spiritual and emotional care should be accessible to all people at all times.
