IRF Roundtable

Working groups

Get Involved

IRF Roundtable Working Groups are self-governed by their co-chairs and convene on a semi-regular basis (bi-weekly, monthly, etc.) to execute multi-faith action targeting religious freedom violations within their region, topic, or agency of focus. Working groups often draft and launch multi-faith letters requesting signatures and support from the IRF Roundtable network and participants. Joining a working group offers opportunities to take action and make an impact.

“Well, it is my view that religious freedom is the ability to search for the truth. And wherever that takes you — to organized religion or no religion at all — the government has no role in intervening in that search path.”
