Increase resiliency and build unit cohesion with the Summit Initiative Model
Training, mentorship, and a network of ministry leaders to aid chaplains as they build service-member-led small groups in their units
To be effective, service members need to be in peak physical, moral, and spiritual condition
But there’s a problem:
Stigma around getting help
Limited opportunity for leadership progression
Unclear path to authentic community
Trauma keeps them from progress
Tools for change are often ineffective
Burden of care lands solely on Chaplains
