About Us
A team of highly accomplished leaders who represent a wide array of professional backgrounds and experiences, with a common passion for our mission to unlock the potential of America’s religious diversity.
Board members provide essential strategic, financial and operational support to Interfaith America’s senior leadership and staff.
The work of drawing from the deep well of strength that is the diversity of faiths may help save our nation. At the very least, it will promote healing, which we sorely need.
It is important to me that my children’s generation develop a curiosity and compassion for others, especially given the increasingly diverse and divisive world we live and work in.
Religious pluralism is America’s super power because our faith traditions draw upon the power of at-one-ment to heal divisions. During this moment of toxic polarization in America, Interfaith America draws upon the power of at-one-ment to help our nation “form a more perfect Union.”
Faith-inspired leadership ignites hope and solidarity, transcending religious divides to tackle social challenges. I've seen its transformative impact in the non-profit sector, reinforcing the importance of interreligious dialogue and education.
Interfaith America Board Member and Judge Tom Griffith recently joined the How to Help podcast to explore the Constitution’s embrace of disagreement as a path to the common good. He shares personal stories from his time on the bench, including his powerful endorsement of Justice Ketanji Brown Jackson (beginning at 10min 20sec) and challenges the notion of “partisans in robes.” It’s a hopeful and deeply reflective conversation on bridgebuilding in the civic space.
Interfaith America’s former board members have shaped the organization and continue to contribute to our work of building an interfaith America.
