If you are a pastor or church leader, you are often the first person your congregants turn to when they are in crisis. You may already offer a degree of limited support and guidance but may feel unequipped to fully provide what is needed.

The Pastoral Care Specialist (PCS) Training Program is a new curriculum developed by the American Association of Pastoral Counselors (AAPC) and the Association for Clinical Pastoral Education (ACPE), and provides the knowledge and skills pastoral caregivers in churches and faith communities need to help others effectively, ethically, and safely​. The training is also applicable to pastoral counselors, spiritual directors, chaplains, and other health professionals who provide spiritual care and support in community health and private practice settings.

The next training starts August 23rd and will run until December 20th. Learn more and sign up at: https://www.arizonachristiancounseling.com/pastoral-care-specialist.html
