Upcoming Trainings

Healthy Boundaries Workshops are a required Training for the Prevention of Clergy Misconduct. Healthy Boundary training is mandatory in the United Church of Christ. The workshops listed below will equip ordained, commissioned, and licensed clergy to understand healthy boundaries in ministry relationships. Healthy and vital ministries rely on trust and mutual support to create spaces of welcome and safety for all. Leaders must understand the role of power and vulnerability to create and maintain healthy boundaries and choose healthy self-care strategies.

These workshops fulfill the requirements for such a workshop every four years for UCC clergy to retain ministerial standing.
