IFYC

IFYC is a national non-profit working towards an America where people of different faiths, worldviews, and traditions can bridge differences and find common values to build a shared life together.

Look at American democracy today and you’ll see a society trying hard to live up to its ideals in the face of unprecedented diversity and difference. It’s not just in the news. In today’s America, we all navigate deep differences with others in our everyday lives. Especially when it comes to religion.

Whether or not our diversity is a good thing is entirely up to us. As a community, we can make it the thread that binds us closer. Otherwise, we allow apathy, tribalism, and voices of intolerance to define our futures.

Ask yourself: what it would look like if every American, regardless of their faith or worldview, was inspired and equipped to:

  • Come together in a way that respects different religious identities?
  • Build mutually inspiring relationships across difference?
  • Engage in common action around issues of shared social concern?

That’s interfaith cooperation and it’s the key to transforming this religiously diverse society into a more just, kind, and pluralistic nation. IFYC is working to make it the norm, not the exception, in American life.
