President’s Advisory Council Meets March 9, 2010

Posted by Joshua DuBois on March 08, 2010 at 02:51 PM EST

We are looking forward to tomorrow’s meeting with the President’s Advisory Council on Faith-based and Neighborhood Partnerships. The Council will meet at  the White House tomorrow and will release its final recommendations around six areas:

  • Economic Recovery and Domestic Poverty;
  • Environment and Climate Change;
  • Fatherhood and Healthy Families;
  • Global Poverty and Development;
  • Inter-religious Cooperation; and
  • Reform of the Office of Faith-Based and Neighborhood Partnerships.

Council members have worked tirelessly throughout the past year on these recommendations, compiling best practices, researching effective programming, conversing with national leaders in these issue areas.  Their recommendations represent strategic ideas about ways government and faith-based and neighborhood organizations can come together to build partnerships that impact the lives of individuals, families and communities. We are grateful to the members of the Council, for their wisdom and extensive contribution to the work of the White House Office of Faith-based and Neighborhood Partnerships.

Feel free to be a part of this conference by calling and listening through the conference call line at 800-857-8628, and the passcode: 5091968.  Proceedings will begin at 9am and end at 3pm.
