Interfaith America

What Interfaith America does

Interfaith America is a Chicago-based, nonpartisan nonprofit organization founded in 2002 that works to advance religious pluralism across American civic life. It serves four primary constituencies: health professionals and faith leaders (training on integrating spirituality into mental health care, anchored by the 6th Global Summit on Spirituality, Religion & Mental Health at Harvard Medical School with over 400 participants); academic institutions (grant-funded curriculum integration such as the $60,000 Faith in Health Professions Campus Grant to UNC Gillings School supporting the new PUBH 890 course launching Spring 2026); civic and community organizations (nonpartisan election engagement, including the Faith in Elections Playbook and related April 2026 webinar); and businesses (thought leadership on worldview diversity in workplaces via the "Why Religious Inclusion Matters for Business Success" podcast).

The organization's portfolio consists of programs, grants, convenings, and content resources rather than a discrete technology product. Its core deliverables include the Faith in Elections Playbook, the ACLS/Templeton Religion Trust-hosted Spiritual Infrastructure of the Future internship program (three-year initiative), The Freedom Fast national civic movement (launched March 2026 with Mobius Dynamics as lead design partner), and various summits and webinars. No proprietary technology platform, AI capability, or mobile product is disclosed; core technology is listed as "Not disclosed in available sources."

Interfaith America's revenue model is grant-funded philanthropy rather than commercial sales. Disclosed institutional support totals approximately $4.7M across two known foundation grants: $3,200,000 from the John Templeton Foundation (February 2025) and $1,500,000 from the Conrad N. Hilton Foundation (May 2022), with additional Templeton Religion Trust funding flowing through the ACLS partnership. With 11-50 employees, the organization operates at a modest scale typical of national US nonprofits reliant on foundation capital, partner institutions, and convening-based dissemination rather than paid customer relationships.
