About this service

ICJS helps chaplains and spiritual caregivers learn how to support people from different religions and backgrounds. They offer free monthly online groups, book studies, workshops, and training webinars. Chaplains work in hospitals, prisons, schools, and military bases. These programs help them give better spiritual care to everyone, no matter what they believe. The groups meet on Zoom and help chaplains connect with other spiritual caregivers. They also give small grants up to $1,000 to help organizations expand their chaplain services.
