Washington Interfaith Network Information

Washington Interfaith Network (WIN), founded in 1996, is a broad-based, multi-racial, multi-faith, strictly non-partisan, District-wide citizens’ power organization, rooted in local congregations and associations. WIN seeks to create long-term power: a broad and united front of organized institutions—organized people and organized money--acting consistently and persistently for change on multiple issues at the local and city-wide levels. WIN engages leaders across the divides of race, culture, income, faith, and/or neighborhood to initiate public action on their issues (e.g. affordable housing, public safety, youth, etc.) and to partner with and hold the government and corporate sectors accountable for addressing these issues. WIN is an affiliate of the Industrial Areas Foundation (IAF), the nation’s first and largest coalition of multi-faith and citizen organizations—and we have seven decades of experience winning tough battles across the nation. IAF member organizations have a deep grassroots presence in the political and financial power centers in the United States, Canada, and Europe.
