Faith in New York

Founded in 2013, Faith in New York is a new and growing interfaith, multicultural federation of over 70 congregations representing over 80,000 families in Queens, Brooklyn, Manhattan, and The Bronx. Faith in New York's mission is to develop grassroots leaders and equip congregations to move significant public policy change that supports our leaders’ vision of a more just New York with excellent public schools, violence-free neighborhoods, access to good jobs, adequate and affordable health care, decent housing for all, and a place where people of all backgrounds can fully participate in economic and civic life. Faith in New York operates in low income, working class communities that are 70% immigrant and over 85% people of color. Faith in New York is a member of Faith in Action (formerly PICO National Network), the largest faith-based community organization in the country.
