What is faith-based community organizing?

Faith-based community organizing is a method of working with faith communities to address the problems and concerns of their communities, and in turn, vitalize and strengthen the life of congregations. At the center of PICO’s model of faith-based community organizing is a belief in the potential for transformation – of people, institutions, and our larger culture.
