The Interfaith Summit: The Role of the Faith Community in Times Like These

Hosted by the Community Council of Metropolitan Atlanta, this summit is Tuesday, December 8, 10:00 a.m. - 12:00 noon at the Interdenominational Theological Center


This summit is for religious leaders of churches, temples, mosques, and synagogues in the metropolitan area, rather than the general public, and will include viable strategies, open dialogue, light refreshments, and purposeful fellowship, as we address three critical community issues.

The agenda will include the following issues:

1. Challenges of Disconnected Youth - Presenter: Mike Masarek, CCMA Board of Directors;

2. The Plight of Young Black Males- Presenter: Robert Yeldell, CEO, People Building People LLC;

3. The Absent Father Syndrome - Presenter: Roosevelt Muhammad, Program Coordinator, Teen Dads/Fulton County Call to Manhood; and
4. Summit Resource Panelist - Bryant Marks, Director of the Morehouse Research Center

After the opening plenary session, presenters will speak from 5-8 minutes on their respective topics, with Dr. Marks assisting with responses to special concerns during the open discussion following each presentation. The open discussions will be followed by break-out sessions, led by the presenters, after which a report-out session with recommendations will conclude the summit.

Now is the time to act on the budget

What to do

  1. Call your U.S. Representative and urge them not to accept the Senate version of the budget reconciliation bill without amendments that:
    1. Protect vulnerable populations by restoring or preserving funding for food assistance, healthcare, housing, education, and childcare.
    2. Avoid placing new, unfunded administrative burdens on states and nonprofits.
    3. Retain programs that are essential to local jobs, services, and economic resilience in communities across your district, including Inflation Reduction Act funding.
  2. Reach out to local officials to speak about the economic harm involved, and ask them to speak out against provisions that harm your nonprofit as an employer and contributor to the local economy.
  3. Mobilize your network to do the same. Every voice counts!
