What does a YouthCARE School Chaplain do? |
| Chaplains provide proactive pastoral care for students, staff, and parents, helping to create a positive and safe school environment and looking out for those in need.
Chaplains support students and the school community through bereavement, difficult family and peer relationships, and other life difficulties that confront children and young people. This may look like: · Providing pastoral care for students, families, and staff · Assisting and supporting students and staff at school events and in classrooms · Facilitating pastoral support programs and resources · Linking schools with the local community, support agencies, and organisations |
