National Police and Fire Academy
The Washington State Chaplain Foundation was originally formed to provide support for the chaplaincy program for the Washington State Patrol and the Department of Fish and Wildlife Police. In 2021 the foundation expanded their support to include chaplains from any State Agency, Police, Sheriff or Fire Department.
WSCF Volunteer chaplains provide a wide range of care not only to employees but their families and the public. The most obvious services the chaplains provide is assistance with death notifications. However, a bigger part of what they do is focused on spending time with officers and Fire Fighters in their day to day activity to develop relationships to help them do their very difficult jobs. They also respond to major disasters when called anywhere in the State. These volunteers are on call 24 hours a day, seven days a week. Whenever and wherever they are called, they go.
The WSCF is committed to the highest standards of training, expertise, and professionalism. To this end, WSCF founded the National Police and Fire Chaplain Academy. This academy trains chaplains globally to be the most comprehensive, high quality and practically equipped chaplains anywhere. This includes expertise in police, fire, and community chaplaincy skill sets.
