Interfaith America
Interfaith America inspires, equips, and connects individuals and institutions to unlock the potential of America’s religious diversity. Interfaith America is the nation’s leader in interfaith cooperation, equipping individuals and institutions with the knowledge and resources to redefine the role of religion in society. We convene allies and partners, helping them discover shared values and guiding them through collaboration toward a common cause. We provide curriculum and resources on religious pluralism, empowering leaders to advance diversity and inclusion and build community. And, we build capacity for institutions and organizations by awarding grants and support that enable them to leverage interfaith cooperation as a proven approach in solving challenges. Together, we are building an America where people of different faiths, worldviews, and traditions bridge divides and find common values to build a shared life for the good of all.
