Introduction to Buddhist Chaplaincy
from AudioDharma: Jennifer Block's most recent dharma talks Hosted by Jennifer Block
This talk was given by Jennifer Block and Vanessa Able on 2024.04.13 at the Sati Center in Redwood City, CA. ******* For more information, visit https://sati.org/programs/chaplaincy-training/. Chaplains provide spiritual care and support to people in places such as hospitals, hospices, prisons and a wide variety of other settings. The work is wonderfully challenging and satisfying. In recent years, dharma practitioners have been experiencing chaplaincy as a powerful opportunity to practice engaged Buddhism, and for some, as a vocation and profession. Join us for an explanation of this field of service, which is gaining in size and scope in dharma communities. Professional chaplains and educators will introduce aspects of chaplaincy, including: a definition of chaplaincy, the history of chaplaincy, settings where chaplains serve, and the steps one can take to become a volunteer or professional chaplain (including educational requirements) as a Buddhist practitioner. ******* Video of this talk is available at: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=R1Unj1pYYOI. ******* For more talks like this, visit AudioDharma.org ******* If you have enjoyed this talk, please consider supporting AudioDharma with a donation at https://www.audiodharma.org/donate/. ******* This talk is licensed by a Creative Commons Attribution-Noncommercial-No Derivative Works 4.0 License
