“Building Bridges for Change: Advancing School Chaplaincy”

Recently, National School Chaplain Association (NSCA) Founder and CEO Rocky Malloy, alongside NSCA Legislative Ambassador Jim Schmidt, had the honor of attending the Pro-Family Legislative Network (PFLN) Conference. This impactful event brought together key legislative leaders and changemakers dedicated to strengthening families, communities, and values-driven initiatives across the nation. Rocky and Jim seized this unique platform to speak passionately about the vital role of school chaplaincy in transforming public schools.

During their discussions, they highlighted how school chaplains positively impact students, teachers, faculty, parents, and guardians—serving as trusted guides, spiritual support, and compassionate leaders within school communities. These conversations underscored the need for certified chaplains in public schools, particularly during a time when emotional, spiritual, and social challenges are at an all-time high.

Engagements like this empower our mission at NSCA by fostering vital relationships with legislative leaders and equipping them with the knowledge and tools to champion school chaplain legislation in new key states. By partnering with PFLN and like-minded advocates, we are paving the way for a future where every student has access to faith-driven support and guidance, thereby strengthening families and communities across the nation.
