The Chaplain Corps’ competencies are critical to the commander’s ability to meet the requirement for the free exercise of religion set forth in the U.S. Constitution successfully.
We will maintain the standards of their ROs for the quality of service they provide in accordance with the manner and form of their ROs: Public worship/sacramental ministry, counseling, faith-based life skills training, religious preparation / education faith-based, relationship enhancement/marriage preparation, command functions with religious element, outreach (religion-based), and public prayer.
Facilitation helps commanders meet diverse religious needs. Accommodation of individual and group religious requirements includes, but is not limited to scheduling, coordinating, budgeting, and contracting, as well as coordination of visiting chaplains, creating liaison with civilian religious professionals, and RMT volunteers and lay leaders. Facilitation happens when a chaplain assists in the religious needs of someone not of the same religious organization: References for faith-specific counsel/ministry: Lay leader program, administration of volunteers, liaison work with civilian clergy and religious leaders, conduct of the religious needs assessment.
The care competency is organized into responsive and preventive/educational/developmental programmatic Initiatives: Casualty assistance calls officer support, responsive family support, suicide prevention and postvention, sexual assault prevention and response, domestic violence, prevention and postvention, substance abuse prevention and postvention, combat and operational stress prevention and postvention, information and referral, developmental /Educational preventive life skills.
Advising Commanders is a core competency of all chaplains and RMTs at every level. We have an obligation to utilize this skill inside the Commander’s decision-making cycle.
