RELIGIOUS AFFAIRS
Leadership Through Faith
Air Force Religious Affairs Airmen (RAAs) are experts in principles of religious diversity, religious accommodation, major faith group requirements, privileged communication, and religious program management. They build a culture of spiritual care, inspire readiness, and facilitate the free exercise of religion through religious accommodation, spiritual fitness, and leadership advisement. RAAs serve in a multi-faith environment where they directly provide or indirectly provide for the free exercise of religion. They also advise leaders at all levels on ethical and moral issues, especially for the enlisted force.
If you enjoy servant leadership and caring for others more than anyone thinks possible, then you will enjoy serving in this vital role in the spiritual care of the Air Force and its mission.
