ON A MISSION OF COMPASSION.

WITHIN THE LAW ENFORCEMENT COMMUNITY IS A GROUP OF INDIVIDUALS COMMITTED TO HELPING PEOPLE IN THEIR TIMES OF NEED. THE PLACER COUNTY LAW ENFORCEMENT CHAPLAINCY (PCLEC) IS A FIELD SERVICE TO LAW ENFORCEMENT, THEIR FAMILIES AND THE PLACER COUNTY COMMUNITY. COMPRISED OF SPECIALLY TRAINED ORDAINED MINISTERS, THE CHAPLAINCY PROVIDES CRISIS RESPONSE SERVICES AT NO COST, BUT AT GREAT BENEFIT, TO THE COMMUNITY.

BECAUSE OUR CHAPLAINS DO SUCH IMPORTANT WORK, THEY ARE REQUIRED TO HAVE FORMAL THEOLOGICAL TRAINING AT THE COLLEGE OR GRADUATE LEVEL, AS WELL AS PASTORAL EXPERIENCE. EACH INDIVIDUAL UNDERGOES A COMPREHENSIVE BACKGROUND INVESTIGATION AND RECEIVES REGULAR MONTHLY TRAINING IN ISSUES RELATED TO LAW ENFORCEMENT AND CRISIS RESPONSE.

RAYS OF LIGHT

IN TIMES OF NEED
Our chaplains provide a valuable service to law enforcement and the community as the pillars of strength that are called upon when crisis or tragedy strikes. Placer County law enforcement agencies have to depend upon the chaplaincy for critical incident stress management and counseling when facing the challenges that confront them in the line of duty - challenges such as fatal accidents, deaths, horrific crimes, family distress and any tragic circumstance associated with their jobs.

The chaplaincy is also proud to work alongside law enforcement officers and employees on a day-to-day basis through regular agency visit, ride-alongs, participation in official events and community projects such as Neighborhood Night Out, Police Memorial Week and Every 15 minutes programs in local high schools.

WORKING TOGETHER
The community Crisis Response Team is a division PLCEC that focuses on the needs of the community. Crisis Responders assist citizens when tragedy strikes and a reassuring touch is needed. Crisis Responders provide rays of light through crisis intervention, grief counseling and encouragement to victims and family members, as well as stress management to business and schools that experience tragedy.
