School Chaplains Avert Identity Crisis

National School Chaplain Association publishes the Dangers of Identity Crisis and how School Chaplains can uniquely circumvent damaging consequences. Spiritual support is the missing link to complete the multidisciplinary approach. Chaplains are needed to work alongside secular, medical and psychiatric modalities for better outcomes.

Target audience includes mental health providers, schools, safety officers, suicide prevention groups, economists, physicians, legislators, teachers, parents, faith groups and religious liberty advocates. Law enforcement, will appreciate learning more because unnecessary turmoil, violence and loss of life has transpired.

Also, this topic affects employers who suffer productivity inefficiency. Valuable time is lost addressing conflict resolution among coworkers.

School administrators will find this interesting because they suffer academic decline, public pressure and financial loss due to parents removing their children from public schools. Academic decline is associated with a shift in student focus to social unrest and preoccupation with identity issues and labels. Peer pressure is at an all-time high with serious consequences.

The article includes timely and critical information, describing identity as more than physical appearance and sexual orientation alone. The built-in sex drive is purposeful, but public behavioral boundaries strengthen respect for self and others.

Most importantly, the article communicates that; "The danger lies, when identity is forced upon others." Far spread implications extend beyond the individual. Emotional, physical and financial collapse has impacted families and all of society.

Article extract:

'Identity is a vital part of the 8 stages of development, described by psychosocial theorist Erik Erickson (McLeod, 2025). Unresolved conflict at any stage, hinders healthy development to the next stage. Recently, the psychosocial struggles have developed into life-altering and irreversible damage. '

In discussing the article's creation, Dorothy Kozar, Editorial Contributor and Speaker at National School Chaplain Association said: "Suicide rates have escalated. After the reality of permanent consequences comes to light, depression climbs due to crippling guilt and deep regret. Irreversible physical alterations through sex change surgeries have taken place. Life-long need for hormone therapy is costly, both emotionally and financially. Disabilities from multiple personality disorders have surfaced. What is the price of fitting-in?"

Regular readers of National School Chaplain Association will notice the article takes a familiar tone, which has been described as; 'Non-confrontational, but compels a deeper perspective for a call to action.'

National School Chaplain Association welcomes comments and questions from readers, inviting a fresh look at all sides of the issue. Dialog dispels misconceptions and accomplishes important things that would otherwise be lost. It's an opportunity to become better together!
