The Office of Religious Life is the Spiritual Center of Princeton University
When challenging or traumatic events happen -- around the world, on campus, or in our lives – the staff chaplains in the Office of Religious Life are here for members of the Princeton University community. Our daily work is to accompany people in their grief, suffering, and lament. We are confidential counselors. We work with individuals, offices, and groups. We are very happy to be present to you also in times of joy, of course! Please reach out to us.
