Faith Coalition for the Common Good

Faith Coalition for the Common Good Our vision is a community with racial and economic equity. We are faith communities, organizations and people working in solidarity.

Together we reclaim our community power towards our shared vision by training on effective community action. Faith Coalition for the Common Good (FCCG) is an interfaith, non-profit organization. Our mission is to unite congregations and individuals with other faith-based and community organizations to identify issues affecting the common good in Central Illinois. We work to educate ourselves and o

thers about these issues and work together for SYSTEMIC change. FCCG provides a place and means for membersโ€“ guided by their faith values and moral principlesโ€“ to positively impact the decisions affecting their communities. FCCG was incorporated as a non-profit organization in the state of Illinois in February 2009.

We believe that solutions are built through relationships, conversations, and a shared commitment to doing what is best for Springfield residents. This summer reminded us that when we bring people to the table, we can move from conversation to collaboration and from collaboration to action. ๐Ÿ’ช๐Ÿพ
