The extent to which faith-based organizations (FBOs) have been
involved in social service, community development, and housing
programs is not well understood. This report draws on interviews
and research of knowledgeable scholars and practitioners in
community development, and summarizes the current state of
knowledge, the policy conclusions, and the major questions that
ensue. Key findings include an overview of the non-worship
activities of FBOs that highlights the diversity of activities they
have undertaken and offers insight into their organizational
capacity. The report also compares what community development
corporations have learned about requisites of effective community
development practice with the organizational capacity of FBOS. The
implications of these findings for policy and research
opportunities are explored.
