Every year, Chemistry Staffing hosts the largest-ever national survey of youth pastor compensation. Now in year five, we've seen over 5,000 respondents.
At Chemistry Staffing, we value helping churches find healthy, long-term fits, and advocating for appropriate compensation for youth pastors is one of the ways we believe we are helping to eliminate this as one of the most obvious factors in burnout. We hope this report helps you manage your staff salary structure in ways that are healthy for everyone.
