Interfaith America has announced fourteen campuses selected as part of a second year of Faith & Health Campus Grants. This grant program is designed to catalyze institutional change by empowering cross-disciplinary campus teams to embed interfaith competency in health-related curricula, build sustainable partnerships with community organizations, and strengthen academic and public understanding of religion as a social determinant of health. Congratulations to Stanford recipients, including Dr. Rania Awaad, Dr. Abiya Ahmed, and Dr. Cassie Garcia Weisenberger!
