School Chaplains For Waskom K-12 Institutions Help Students Overcome Grief
Our students' mental health is increasingly at risk - and traditional counselling simply isn't enough.
Recent figures from the CDC show that nearly a third of all US students experienced poor mental health in 2021 - and more than one in five seriously considered suicide.
Helping students going through challenging circumstances, school chaplains offer a valuable informal line of help that has none of the weight carried by traditional counselling.
The NSCA offers new opportunities for K12 schools in Harrison County looking for compassionate, non-judgmental spiritual care and counseling for students and staff.
“Chaplains exist at the complex intersection of spirituality and mental health, where the line between a spiritual crisis and a mental health crisis is not always clear."
Correlating their efforts with teacher guidance and licensed therapy, school chaplains can substantially increase school safety...
...and help students overcome potentially debilitating mental health issues, says NSCA.
