Spiritual Care and Chaplaincy
Transgender Education
Target audience: Chaplains
Best practice chaplaincy with people who are transgender requires understanding the religious, social, legal, and health care policy variables that create a unique set of stressors and vulnerabilities as chaplains provide spiritual care to transgender persons in the healthcare setting. While chaplains are generally positioned to support people who are transgender, many are unfamiliar with the deeply troubling role some faith traditions’ religious convictions have played to justify hateful actions, unjust treatment, and health disparities. This workshop describes the development of a curriculum for chaplains, from diverse faith traditions and levels of training, to understand the particular dynamics surrounding a chaplain’s interaction with a transgender person, and practice strategies that respect belief systems of the chaplains while also building rapport and fostering safety with transgender patients.
