CHAPLAIN CORPS

The Stillwater Police Department (SPD) Chaplain Corps consists of six local pastors who volunteer their time both to members of SPD and to the citizens of Stillwater. The purpose of the Corps is to provide a variety of services based upon the Chaplains' individual skills and training. Some of these services include:

Confidential counseling
Visiting the sick and bereaved
Domestic dispute intervention
Suicide intervention
Consultations and training
Death notifications
Officer debriefing (following critical stress incidents)

Currently, the Chaplains rotate through an "on-call" list, one of whom remains available on a 24-hour basis. Upon a request for their services, the Chaplain on-call is contacted either by a dispatcher from Central Communications, or an officer may contact them directly. Thus, the on-call Chaplain may arrive on the scene of a call-for-service with the officer handling the call, or arrive to the location themselves, depending on each individual request.

Please refer to the following list of those pastors currently participating in SPD's Chaplain Corps program:
