2021 Webinar Series



The NACC 2021 monthly Professional Development Webinars have been planned around specific focus areas. Final topics and presenters are in process and will be announced as they are confirmed. Please see below our themes for the webinars in 2021., click the “+” to view a general description of the focus as well as to see the planned dates for each webinar. Please note that all of the webinars included in the “Professional Development Webinars” are held at 12:00 pm Central Time on the date listed.

 

Quarter 1 ~ Racial Justice focus

This focus is in response to the cries for justice among people of color. Webinars will look at the role of Chaplains in restorative justice and in advocacy for racial justice in their ministry and communities. Dates for quarter one webinars are:

  • January 21 ~ Social Justice and Chaplaincy, presented by Barbara Sheehan SP
  • February 18 ~ Holiness and Prejudice: the Black Catholic Legacy, presented by  Auxiliary Bishop of Chicago, Most Reverend Joseph N. Perry
  • March 18 ~ USCCB US Bishops, Racism, and Implications for the Pastoral Care Healing Ministry, presented by  Ms. Danielle M. Brown Esq.

Quarter 2 ~ Behavioral/Mental Health focus

The global pandemic has strained our ministries and those who serve in them in unprecedented ways. In addition, our members have asked for additional training focusing on behavioral health. These webinars will provide chaplains additional tools to effectively minister to staff and to all who suffer from mental illness. Dates for quarter two webinars are:

  • April 15 ~ Finding Wholeness in a Period of Fragmentation, presented by Thomas Rea BCC; Cory Mitchell, D Bioethics MA;  Anne Dohrenwend PhD
  • May 20 ~ Embodied Self Care as Spiritual Practice and Prayer, presented by Sarah Cledwyn MA
  • June 17 ~ Cultivating Racially Equitable Mental Health Support and Implications for Spiritual Care, presented by Amittia Parker PhDc, LMSW, MPA

Quarter 3 ~ Spiritual Accompaniment focus

Every year, NACC reports notable developments and outcomes to the USCCB’s Certification for Ecclesial Ministry and Service. In response to our report, the USCCB provides commendations and recommendations to NACC. This quarter’s theme is in direct response to a recent recommendation of the USCCB to articulate and develop the chaplain’s role in spiritual accompaniment. Dates for quarter three webinars are:

  • July 15 ~ COVID Vaccinations: A Scientific and Theological Discussion, presented by Ruth Mullowney-Agra MD and Brian M. Kane PhD.
  • August 19 ~ Spiritual and Psychosocial Support: Accompanying Others Impacted by COVID-19, presented by Rev. Richard Bauer MM BCC
  • September 16 ~ Spiritual Accompaniment: An Invitation to Soul Listening, presented by Diane M. Millis PhD

Quarter 4 ~ Theological focus & Palliative Care and Hospice focus

While this quarter does not have an overarching them, since November is National Palliative Care and Hospice month, we will showcase that specialty in our November webinar. The end of the calendar year invites us to a spirit of reflection and contemplation and thus, December’s webinar will have a theological focus.
Dates for quarter four webinars are:

  • November 11 ~ From Cowboys to Pit Crews: Spiritual Care in the Pandemic, presented by Denise Hess MDiv, BCC-PCHAC, Sedona T. Montelongo BCC-PCHAC, Gary A. Weisbrich BCC-PCHAC
  • December 16 ~ To Place Ourselves in the World of Another Person: How Historical Discernment Paves the Road to Transformative Love and Racial Justice, presented by Sheri Bartlett Browne, PhD, BCC
