HISTORICAL TIME LINE
The historical timeline that follows began as newsprint pages generated in
Toronto on June 9, 2007 when the CAPPE/ACPEP Board as well as
Professional Practice Commission (PPC) and Education Standards Commission
(ESC) groups took part in a Retreat in which personal and professional
memories of what is now CASC/ACSS were explored. Additional information
has been gleaned from documents provided by and interviews conducted with
current and former CASC/ACSS members since 2010. Some Internet research
has also occurred. The hope is to gather items of historical meaning in the
development of our Association. The timeframe offered for the 2007 Toronto
retreat is the same timeframe used here: 1930 to the present, and then on into
the decade of 2030.
After reviewing this historical timeline, we invite you to download the form
titled Writing Our History and provide us with your memories as well as
knowledge. Thus you will add to the historical events in this overview of
CASC/ACSS, especially in your particular region. We would also appreciate
corrective edits to both the dates and events included in this initial posting of
the Timeline. It is a tool of remembering that will be updated on a regular
basis. A Consent Form, which includes a description of our intentions for use of
the gathered historical materials, will be sent to every information provider.
Options will be available regarding anonymity and confidentiality.

Clinical Pastoral Education (CPE) has its roots in the United States. Rev.
Anton Boisen is the pioneer founder who coined the phrase “living human
document”. He also developed the “case study” as the written human document
for theological reflection. See: the Association for Clinical Pastoral Education
(ACPE) website’s “History Corner” for more information on the U.S. history
of CPE found at http://www.acpe.edu/WhoWeAreHistory.html.
