Applications have now opened for the 2016 PASCOP Quality in Pastoral and Spiritual Practice Awards.
The prestigious awards recognise innovation and excellence in the spiritual care of older people.
Last year’s winner was Churches of Christ, Queensland for its dementia specific church service program.
EO Dave Petty said that the awards are solely for current PASCOP members, and provide a showcase for members to promote their initiatives to improve spiritual care of older people.
“Last year the judges were impressed by the diversity of spiritual care for older people programs that are underway across Australia. Many of these programs go unsung so the awards are about making visible the extraordinary innovation and commitment of our members.”
The Awards are awarded annually. Applications close on 30 June 2016.
