Why CRN Exists
Chaplains are often called into moments of crisis, grief, trauma, transition, and moral complexity. Yet many organizations seeking to build chaplaincy programs face the same challenge: developing consistent, credible, and practical training materials requires time, funding, and specialized expertise.
Modular by design
Resources are built for use in certificate programs, continuing education, online courses, workshops, institutional training, and degree pathways.
Adaptable to your mission
Each organization uses CRN resources in line with its own mission, identity, and standards — with clear licensing and attribution.
Academically rigorous
Materials are outcomes-based, standards-aligned, and ready for real-world chaplaincy practice across diverse and global settings.
Built for scale
CRN is designed to distribute content across formats, channels, and languages — reaching chaplains wherever they serve.
Built Together
The Chaplain Resource Network was established by five organizations united by a common mission.
Marsh Institute for Chaplains
Clinical Pastoral Education International
Community Chaplain Network
CAREForce
Hope Thru Faith Foundation
The network is preparing for broader institutional access.
Strategic alliances, institutional partnerships, and continued curriculum development are underway.
