Corporate Chaplains Of America

What Corporate Chaplains Of America does

Corporate Chaplains of America (CCA) is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit corporation founded in 1996 and headquartered in Wake Forest, North Carolina, that delivers workplace chaplaincy services to U.S. businesses. CCA deploys a national network of trained chaplains to client company locations to provide confidential, voluntary, permission-based one-on-one care sessions for employees and their families dealing with personal crises such as death, divorce, illness, financial stress, and marital issues. The organization serves nearly 3,000 company locations reaching approximately 1,000,000 employees and family members, with services accessible through weekly onsite visits, a 24/7 phone line (800 number), and a secure mobile app.

The company's core service is delivered through a proprietary 4-Point Process covering Introduction (onsite orientation), Availability (weekly visits), Engagement (one-on-one care sessions), and Dependability (24/7 access). Chaplains are recruited through a rigorous qualification process that hires only 1 in 38 applicants, requiring both corporate experience and professional chaplaincy training. CCA's product surface also extends to HR Manager Support (culture cultivation, workload reduction) and Business Owner/CEO Support (workforce stabilization, turnover reduction). The organization holds independent third-party validations including ECFA membership, Charity Navigator Four-Star Rating (2025), and Candid 2026 Profile Seal.

CCA operates a B2B enterprise sales motion targeting business owners, CEOs, and HR managers through direct field sales, demo scheduling, and content marketing (blog, eBooks, webinars, social media). Revenue is generated via a per-employee flat-fee subscription model under multi-year contracts, with pricing not publicly disclosed and custom quotes provided on request; the employee receives services at no cost. The company is led by CEO Larry Griffith (former Area President at ALLTEL), COO Brian Ayers (22-year CCA veteran), CGO Jason Bates (ex-Windstream), and CFO Steve Ross, with no external venture or institutional funding as a nonprofit entity.
