Our Chapel Team is available to provide couple and individual counseling. Whether it be work-related, relationship, personal, or spiritual counseling, we are here to help. Counseling with a Chaplain or a Religious Affairs Airman is privileged communication.
Privileged communication is protected communication IAW Military Rule of Evidence 503. Under this rule: “a person has a privilege to refuse to disclose and to prevent another from disclosing a confidential communication by the person to a clergyman or to a clergyman’s assistant, if such communication is made either as a formal act of religion of as a matter of conscience."
Individual must provide chapel representative informed, written consent to disclose privileged communication. Otherwise, under no circumstances may information be revealed to any source (AFI 52-101).
