Abstract

ABSTRACT All just societies recognize the intrinsic right of people to practice their faith in accordance with their conscience. In order to practice faith, people need easy access to religious specialists who facilitate the free exercise of religion. When institutions and government agencies erect barriers that separate people from their spiritual care providers, the spiritual needs and essential rights of the people are compromised. This article argues that spiritual care is essential and that chaplains should advocate for the religious needs of their people when they lack meaningful access to a faith-specific spiritual care provider.
