The Response: Civility and Community

Mainstream religious leaders, prominent scholars, and other important public figures have come together to form The Interfaith Alliance Foundation. Together we are affirming the important role religion has played in American public life and we are educating folks about all forms of religious and political intolerance. We are working together to overcome ideological divisions and to counter the misuse and political manipulation of religion. TIAF affirms both the plurality of religious voices and the strength that diversity brings to our national life. We encourage the active participation in civic life by people of faith and all people of good will.

At TIAF, our vision is a society in which different religious communities live together in freedom and peace, and where citizens from diverse backgrounds participate in honest and respectful dialogue about the direction of our nation. Drawing upon the values derived from our many communities of faith, we envision a society that respects diversity and values community.
