Pastors and Adverse Childhood Experiences [Research Survey]

As a pastor, church leader, and/or Christian counselor you carry a unique set of responsibilities that impact the lives of many, but we recognize that your own experiences, particularly those from childhood, can also play a significant role in your ministry. We are conducting an important survey titled “Pastors and Adverse Childhood Experiences (ACEs)”, and we would be honored to have your participation.

This brief, confidential survey seeks to understand how Adverse Childhood Experiences (ACEs) have influenced pastors both personally and professionally. Your insights will help guide future efforts to provide support and resources that strengthen pastoral care and mental health within the church.

For Christian counselors, we have a special section in this survey for Christian counselors on this survey and your input will help us understand what is happening in churches and how you are integrating faith into your counseling.

The survey should only take a few minutes, and your responses will remain completely anonymous. By sharing your experiences, you’ll be contributing to a deeper understanding of the needs of pastors and helping to foster healthier church leadership.
