Although we are a secular, non-sectarian organization, our mission is rooted in the work of the late Rabbi Marc H. Tanenbaum, one of the 20th century’s pre-eminent activists and scholars in interreligious relations. First and foremost a fosterer of interreligious education and dialogue, his work had a deeply practical bent. It saw its fullest expression in his determination to confront and address the roots of religious hatred, and to ensure that no victim of bigotry or violence would go unnoticed by the world.
