Orthodox Christian Association of Medicine, Psychology and Religion
The Orthodox Christian Tradition emphasizes a holistic perspective
concerning one's growth in Christ. OCAMPR works to cultivate
interdisciplinary dialogue and programs in an effort to realize
that holistic approach in human service. It is an inter-Orthodox
organization of professionals who seek to understand how to experience
the relationship between theology and life so that they may offer
their service in the light of that vision.
OCAMPR GOALS:
To facilitate Christian fellowship among professionals in medicine,
psychology and religion.
To facilitate interdisciplinary dialogue among helping professionals.
To work toward an understanding of the whole person, integrating the
basic assumptions of medicine, psychology and religion with the Orthodox
Christian Faith.
To assist in the education of one another and the community concerning
interdisciplinary studies and the Orthodox faith.
To offer particular applications and services to the community about
the whole person from an Orthodox Christian and interdisciplinary
perspective.
OCAMPR is a non-profit organization, approved by the Standing Conference
of Orthodox Bishops in the Americas (SCOBA). Membership is open to
any interested party, especially those in the healing arts. For more
