Forgot about them. They don't seem very common. Could we put one in every major unit or one in a couple units smaller units?We do have Social Work Officers.. Hiring more of those and using them to fill the roles performed by the Chaplains would be totally doable.
I can call my unit chaplain tomorrow and get his help dealing with a member in crisis. I know of another member who's on month 3 waiting for a mental health intake with warrior support.
Do social worker officers deploy to the field and sleep in tents?
That's true. I wouldn't say officers in general have an incredible amount of trust going for them right now either but the aversion to religion is a thing for sure.It indeed might be more useful for a lot of members who might be hesitant to approach the chaplains due to a distaste or distrust of organized religion.
