Since the Federal Faith-Based and Community Initiative was established in 2001, the FBCI has released a number of key reports that describe how the FBCI has enabled Federal partnerships and highlight the role of FBCOs actively serving individuals in need.
Unlevel Playing Field Report
In 2001, the WHOFBCI released a report summarizing the results of the findings from the 180 audits of five Federal agencies. This report described the barriers—both institutional and structural—that led to the unlevel playing field for faith-based organizations seeking to partner with Federal and State government. This report outlines the environment in which the FBCI began its work to enable the Federal government to partner with FBCOs.
The Quiet Revolution Report
On February 25, 2008, the White House Office of Faith-Based and Community Initiatives announced the release of a report entitled "The Quiet Revolution." This report offers the first-ever comprehensive analysis of the successful implementation of President Bush’s vision for the Faith-Based and Community Initiative. Although often working behind the scenes, the FBCI has reshaped the way government approaches grassroots organizations targeting human services needs.
Compassion in Action Roundtables
The White House Office of Faith-Based and Community Initiatives convened monthly Compassion in Action Roundtables that are described in the following reports. The Roundtables were designed to capture and highlight unique and innovative approaches to addressing critical social needs.
