Professional and respectful chaplains who have been trained by The National School Chaplain Association (NSCA) (405-831-3299) are now ready to support schools in Glen Rose and throughout Texas.
If the wellbeing, community and educational support structures in your school need some support themselves, you should consider hiring a National School Chaplain Association-trained chaplain.
The NSCA is the leading body for school chaplaincy certification and advocacy in the United States and they are also responsible for training the nation’s most trusted chaplains. Now, they are pleased to be announcing to school principals and school district heads in Texas, like yourself, that they have updated their training program in order to provide your school with the highest caliber of chaplains; professional and respectful individuals who are ready to support your school in diverse ways.

Following the passing of the Chaplain Bill in the State of Texas, the NSCA commends the state for proving itself to be at the forefront of educational support in the country. As a recent study from the Department of Education of Australia showcased—a country which has an enshrined National School Chaplaincy Program—chaplains “deliver a diverse range of direct support,” not only to students but to staff and whole school communities.
In particular, the comprehensive nationwide study showed that chaplains provide a holistic approach to student and staff wellbeing, alleviate pressure on school staff, provide flexible and tailored support, and meet the increasing need for wellbeing care in school communities.
For their part, the National School Chaplain Association, which also has an international presence in Australia, believes that school chaplains are one of the most significant ways in which your school’s educational and emotional support structures can be strengthened.

Much like Australia’s National School Chaplaincy Program, as the governing national body for chaplains in the US, the NSCA is a reflective organization that constantly reviews their performance and seeks to improve their operations and their training programs. As such, with their newest training update they believe they can equip their certified chaplains with the skills they need to provide educational, emotional and moral support in your school community, as well as to tackle any specific challenges your school community may be facing, like poor mental health, bullying, including cyberbullying, gender confusion, school safety concerns, and more.
NSCA chaplains are now welcomed by Texas law into any school and school district, and the association will help you find the chaplain that’s right for your school community.
A spokesperson for the National School Chaplain Association said, “Hiring a chaplain at your school directly impacts the lives of students, staff, educators, and communities through increased school safety, better teacher retention, and enhanced mental health support.”
There are hundreds of reasons to hire a NSCA-trained chaplain.
