What is the relationship between the number of employed chaplains and departmental Clinical Pastoral Education (CPE) programs? How much effort do departments give to outpatient ministry? What percentage of ministry do volunteer chaplains provide? Provides tentative answers to inform the strategic planning processes of chaplains and administrators.
