The role of pastoral crisis intervention in disasters, terrorism, violence, and other community crises.
The term "pastoral crisis intervention" has been defined by Everly (2000) as the functional integration of faith-based resources with traditional crisis intervention assessment and intervention technologies. Pastoral crisis intervention has been differentiated from ministry and the provision of chaplaincy services. This paper provides a public health model for integrating pastoral crisis intervention services within the larger domain of community disaster response, crisis intervention, and emergency mental health.
