Mission Statement
A Faith That Does Justice is an interfaith organization that challenges people to experience God by living their faith intentionally in service to others. We do this by showing how unjust societal structures marginalize people and by acting to help those in need. Our vision is people intentionally living their faith in action. Our programs fall under our two key strategic areas of focus: · Acting to help those in need with a particular emphasis on immigrant populations. · Showing how unjust systems marginalize people and encouraging our followers to put their faiths into action to address injustice.
