The ICPC Needs You

Join Our Ministry of Presence

The International Conference of Police Chaplains (ICPC for short) answers the humble yet critical call to minister to some of the most exposed, at-risk members of our community: police men and women. Our Mandate is simple: Be what is needed, where it is needed most. 

Heed the Call

See the Need

Law enforcement officers regularly encounter fatal accidents, violent crime, and domestic abuse, yet their resulting depression and stress often goes untreated due to the stigma around seeking support. The very independence, fortitude, and self-reliance that make a soul fit for law enforcement service, renders him or her more susceptible to its long-term effects.

See the Good

Chaplaincy is as crucial as it is uncomplicated. The call of the chaplain is simply the call to see the good. As volunteers who exist outside the command structure, yet hold themselves accountable to agency leadership, chaplains are uniquely positioned to lead by example. In every situation, in every crisis, in every moment, chaplains are there solely to support without judgment, to normalize positivity and resilience, and to be a reminder of the goodness and humanity that can be obscured in times of extremity.

Join the ICPC

The ICPC is a global family of individuals dedicated to supporting those who serve on the front lines. Ours is a ministry of presence—proactively walking alongside officers through critical incidents, offering guidance to their families, and championing wellness practices that remove the stigma associated with seeking and receiving help. We serve those who think only of the service they can give. Often, we are the only ones from whom they will receive it.
