We are a diverse community of many faiths, standing together against religious illiteracy, ignorance, and bias. We seek a world where greater understanding leads to less violence and hatred, and where no one is persecuted for their religious beliefs.
Help us spread understanding, acceptance and mutual respect.
Join us today by becoming an Active Advocate.
You will receive advance notice of all CCIU programs and activities. You will learn about other religions and promote religious literacy in our increasingly diverse world. But even more importantly, you will be advocating with and for your neighbors of all faiths.
