CHA is offering an on-demand recording of the June 8, 2023 Care for the Transgender Soul: An Introduction to Spiritual Care for Trans Persons and their Families webinar.

Please Note: You must have a CHA web account to access the on-demand recording.

Description

While discussions about the political and clinical aspects of health care for transgender individuals are common, little attention is given to their spiritual and pastoral lives, even though many have strong religious beliefs.

To address this gap, the Spiritual Care Advisory Council of the Catholic Health Association hosted a webinar aimed at exploring how spiritual care can be tailored to meet the unique needs of transgender persons and their families.

The webinar features experts with extensive experience serving the transgender community within the Catholic health ministry.  Our speakers address the unique needs of transgender individuals and their families, offering chaplains practical strategies to provide effective pastoral and spiritual care.
