What’s Ahead for the Obama Faith-Based Initiative?
To the surprise of many (and the disgust of some), President Obama has maintained the federal faith-based initiative that was a signature domestic policy of his predecessor, George W. Bush. How meaningful has the Obama version of the initiative been, and what might lie ahead for it? The Brookings Institution is hosting a discussion on these topics next week:
“Four More Years for the White House Office of Faith-based and Neighborhood Partnerships,” Monday, Dec. 17, 9 am to noon.
Speakers include Joshua DuBois, executive director of the White House faith-based office, John DiIulio, first director of the Bush White House faith-based office, and your humble editor.
