This paper presents an ethical decision-making model geared towards military chaplains dealing with multiple areas of influence. Normally, an individual deals with a professional organization or a set of rules defined by their employer to provide guidelines for ethical decision-making. This is not the case for military chaplains, specifically Family Life Chaplains; they have multiple areas of influence that provide input when dealing with ethical dilemmas. Military chaplains are provided input from their ecclesiastical endorser; their religion; their scripture; military regulations; military memoranda; other military documents; professional organizations; federal, state, and other laws; and other areas. When confronted with an ethical decision, chaplains need to take into consideration all of these pieces of input, figure out a way to organize them in a hierarchical format, and then make an informed decision that is in the best interest of the person they are helping. This paper presents a five-step process and uses a graphical presentation based on the genogram to provide a visual representation of the decision making model. A key component of the model takes into consideration multiple 'informants' or ourtside influences that impact the individual's decision-making when confronted with an ethical dilemma and helps them organize the 'informants' into a logical, hierarchical format to assist in making a decision. The project uses four case studies to present the model including four genogram-graphics.
