Do you have expertise in spiritual care? Are you ready to provide radically compassionate, unbiased, and judgment-free support to others? Apply to become a Faith Aloud Spiritual Care Counselor and join a community of volunteers making a real difference in people’s lives!
The Faith Aloud Spiritual Care Line is here for people all over the United States and Canada, supporting them in decisions and experiences related to pregnancy, parenting, abortion, adoption, miscarriage, infertility, and more. We understand that pregnancy experiences and spiritual/religious themes can be deeply personal and complex. Our toll-free, Faith Aloud Spiritual Care Line is a space where callers can reach a Spiritual Care Counselor to join them in their process — free from judgment, full of support, and with compassion for the spiritual themes and conflicts that arise before, during, and even long after making pregnancy decisions.
When volunteering with Faith Aloud, the initial commitment is one year. All Spiritual Care Counselors for Faith Aloud must attend a virtual training. After completing this training, Spiritual Care Counselors commit to:
- 2 shifts per month (3-4 hours each)
- Attend quarterly meetings to get updated on changes in the program and share best practices with other Spiritual Care Counselors
Faith Aloud Spiritual Care Counselors come from a diverse background of experiences, from current and graduated seminary students, to active and retired ministers and chaplains. As we work toward having a group of spiritual care counselors that reflect the diversity of lived experiences of our callers, we’re especially interested in applicants who are Black, Indigenous, people of color, and folks who identify within the LGBTQIA community. While we are looking for volunteers who speak Spanish fluently, all training sessions and materials are in English.
