“We have maintenance on our trucks, we have maintenance on our equipment, but we do not have maintenance on our members.”

“When I was listening to the Palmer dwelling fire on Saturday it was the first time in 30 years I heard the radio call of, ‘send me the Chaplain’. Truly groundbreaking!”

- Nathan Bissey, Chaplain, Nancy Run Fire Company, Station 14, Northampton County, PA

Now, more than ever, first responders need competent, trusted, embedded and understanding support. The department with a developed chaplaincy program offers its personnel one of the absolute best solutions for preemptive and proactive care. First responders experience unique stressors. The sights, sounds, and smells experienced by the men and women in fire, police, EMS, and dispatch agencies can impact them for years, even cutting short their professional careers. Having properly trained, embedded chaplains within a department can make all the difference in the longevity of personnel. This is what First Responder Chaplain Corps is fully committed to.

Do you want to learn about chaplaincy or establish a chaplaincy program? do you have a chaplaincy program and need it to be more effective? We can help! Please contact us, we’d love working with you!
