SUMMARY:RTL: Costs of Freedom in Dallas County
DESCRIPTION:As people of faith\, we cannot stand aside as the mass incarceration system we so heavily invest in destroys the lives of those we are commanded to love in our many faith traditions. But what can we do? Friends – we have an opportunity in September to make our people safe from Dallas County’s incarceration system. If you want to reverse the tide of locking people away then join us on 8/26 to hear what things (big and small) you can do in the next few weeks to put your faith into action and end mass incarceration in Dallas.

SUMMARY:2022 Faith Forum - Registration / Networking Dinner
DESCRIPTION:The Faith Forum will be a four-day national gathering of clergy\, faith leaders\, federation directors\, organizers\, and Faith in Action partners. Faith in Action (FIA)\, the nation’s largest faith-based grassroots organizing network\, is hosting its Second Annual National Faith Forum\, Feb. 28-March 3\, 2022 in Washington D.C. The 4 day national gathering of clergy\, faith leaders\, FIA federation directors\, organizers\, and partners was created to train leaders to move our local\, state and federal work forward as a unified response to systems that conspire against black and brown people. \nFaith in Action in the spring launched a listening campaign to hear leaders’ experiences over the last four years\, to share hopes and dreams for the future\, and to create a collective vision and priorities for Faith in Action within a shifting political landscape. The campaign’s goal is to listen to 10\,000 people and train at least 500 “super leaders” in 20 states and the District of Columbia. Faith in Action is using an anti-racist research paradigm method called Participatory Action Research to determine the key themes and findings and will compile what is learned into a report. The report and findings will be used in advocacy\, briefings and in the Faith Forum. \nDuring the Forum we envision activities such as: \n\nTraining and development opportunities for participants.\nAn action in Washington D.C.\nAdvocacy visits with members of Congress.\nPanel discussions with members of congress and administration.\nUnveiling of FIA’s Platform based on listening campaign.

SUMMARY:2022 Faith Forum – Advocacy Day Debriefs / Closing
DESCRIPTION:The Faith Forum will be a four-day national gathering of clergy\, faith leaders\, federation directors\, organizers\, and Faith in Action partners. Faith in Action (FIA)\, the nation’s largest faith-based grassroots organizing network\, is hosting its Second Annual National Faith Forum\, Feb. 28-March 3\, 2022 in Washington D.C. The 4 day national gathering of clergy\, faith leaders\, FIA federation directors\, organizers\, and partners was created to train leaders to move our local\, state and federal work forward as a unified response to systems that conspire against black and brown people. \nFaith in Action in the spring launched a listening campaign to hear leaders’ experiences over the last four years\, to share hopes and dreams for the future\, and to create a collective vision and priorities for Faith in Action within a shifting political landscape. The campaign’s goal is to listen to 10\,000 people and train at least 500 “super leaders” in 20 states and the District of Columbia. Faith in Action is using an anti-racist research paradigm method called Participatory Action Research to determine the key themes and findings and will compile what is learned into a report. The report and findings will be used in advocacy\, briefings and in the Faith Forum. \nDuring the Forum we envision activities such as: \n\nTraining and development opportunities for participants.\nAn action in Washington D.C.\nAdvocacy visits with members of Congress.\nPanel discussions with members of congress and administration.\nUnveiling of FIA’s Platform based on listening campaign.

SUMMARY:Faith in Action Women’s Celebration and Training
