HISTORY
Local religious, business, and community leaders established Interfaith Partnership of Metropolitan St. Louis in 1983. The organization was incorporated in 1986. One key focus area of our founders was to eliminate the duplication of social services in the St. Louis region by increasing access and awareness of existing social services. The organization was committed to an action-oriented approach, which brings together people and resources needed to make a difference in critically significant areas. The Partnership was successful in facilitating coalitions to address hunger, health and youth development issues.
Today, our mission is to be a collaborative organization open to all faith groups, congregations, religious and community-based organizations in the St. Louis Metropolitan area. We strive to provide a timely voice and visible presence of the religious community by bringing together people of faith for dialogue, celebration, and increased understanding. We strive to communicate to all members what is happening in social ministry and to identify community needs and stimulate coordinated responses.
