SU
QLD chaplains, or 'chappies', provide spiritual and emotional support to school
communities. They are in the prevention and support business: helping students
find a better way to deal with issues ranging from family breakdown and
loneliness, to drug abuse, depression and anxiety. They provide a listening ear
and a caring presence for children and young people in crisis, and those
who just need a friend. They also provide support for staff and parents in
school communities.
