 Fact Sheet: The Faith-Based & Community Initiative
President George W. Bush created the White House Office of Faith-Based
and Community Initiatives (FBCI) in 2001, to support the efforts of
faith-based and community groups to address social problems. The Office
of FBCI provides technical assistance to groups that had previously been
ineligible to bid on government human service contracts. Centers for FBCI
have been established at 11 federal agencies, to strengthen partnerships
with grassroots organizations and implementing the FBCI vision within
their agency's human service programs. The Compassion Capital Fund
provides technical assistance to help small, grassroots organizations
that have never received federal funding build capacity to compete for
federal grants.
