Chaplains help people negotiate the big questions and challenges of being human by working with individuals or groups who are exploring their identities and purpose, navigating loss or transition, or
experiencing crisis and in need of care.
If you want more information or seek to connect with a
certain person or program, please reach out to the Director of Religious Life, the Rev. Kathryn
Lester-Bacon. These chaplains are not intended as a replacement for mental health counseling, but instead
are to be seen as an additional meaningful resource for a student’s time at Duke.
