Chaplain Service Mission: As a called community of spiritual care professionals, we come together to provide compassionate, holistic spiritual healthcare and education to Veterans, family, staff, and community, honoring justice, equity, diversity, and inclusion.

Chaplain Service Vision: We cultivate spiritual health and wellness to support human flourishing.

Atlanta VAHCS Chaplains are available at the Medical Center every day including weekends, between the hours of 8:00 a.m. and 4:00 p.m., and are on call for spiritual care emergencies overnight including on weekends and holidays.

Chaplains are also available for pastoral care and counseling at other sites of care, including over 16 larger multi-specialty clinics, community-based outpatient clinics, and Domiciliary Care . Hours and days at these additional locations varies.

Chaplains are members of the interprofessional teams for both inpatient medical care as well as outpatient mental health care. If you wish to have a personal religious leader or faith group representative contacted, your care team, which includes chaplains, can assist in arranging those visits.
