Fire Chaplains

Critical incident response, firehouse care, and burnout prevention.

Fire chaplains are embedded with crews — from the firehouse kitchen table to the worst scenes of their careers. We train chaplains for CISM, family liaison, mass casualty response, and the quiet presence that holds a crew together through a long week.

Where this chaplain shows up

  • Firehouse visits and crew-level pastoral care
  • On-scene support at structure fires, MVAs, and rescues
  • Critical Incident Stress Management (CISM)
  • Family liaison after line-of-duty injuries or deaths
