DONATE TO COASTAL CRISIS CHAPLAINCY TODAY
Coastal Crisis Chaplaincy’s mission is to be a light in the depth of pain and a hope in the day to day for first responders, individuals, and our community.
The Chaplaincy serves first responders, survivors of traumatic loss, and the community as a whole across Charleston, Berkeley and Dorchester Counties. What began more than 30 years ago as a way to serve first responders has grown to reach all corners of our community. When someone traumatically loses a loved one to homicide, suicide, drowning, fire/traffic fatality, or another traumatic death, The Chaplaincy is called to the scene to care for surviving loved ones. Chaplains, peer support, and resources, are provided to open up access to a continuum of grief care for survivors following their loss. First responders are supported immediately following traumatic calls and in the day to day stressors of their profession. Within our community, chaplains both lead and participate in community events and walks to unite law enforcement and community members, promoting the dignity and sacred worth of all.
