What They Do

$2.7M in expenses

National policy and campaigns-in 2024, it was a year of unified action and preparation for our network federations. We convened multiple times as a network with our member organizations to analyze and prepare for issue campaigns across the country. We equipped our 42 federation directors and staff to increase political engagement and education in their local context with their bases. We also convened representatives of the national network including directors, leaders and staff to ratify political and national campaign strategies for the entire network that included a focus on housing, education, climate justice, and mass incarceration. More than 125 people gathered from over 30 federations. It was the first time in years that we voted on a collaborative political strategy.

$1.8M in expenses

Network federation support-we conducted a listening campaign with thirty executive directors to ask whether faith in action was adding value, or could add value, to their organization, and if so what should we do differently to help them become more powerful and effective. Simultaneously, our new executive director, often accompanied by board members, began visiting each member federation to hear honest feedback from their boards and staff. We launched a federation first process to focus national staff energy on the needs of our member organizations. Faith in action convened a retreat with executive directors.
