The DRCN is in the process of developing a new training course to support Ministers and other congregational leaders in the event of disaster.
Part of the charter of the Disaster Recovery Chaplaincy Network is to provide support, educational resources to ministry agents in disaster-affected areas, and to help link them in to the recovery processes underway in their communities. This new course “Ministers Support Training”, is designed to prepare DRCN chaplains to do this.
What is the DRCN?
The Disaster Recovery Chaplaincy Network (DRCN) is an ecumenical network of chaplains established to assist people in NSW who have been affected by disasters and major emergencies within their communities.
