Interfaith Youth Corps
There are hundreds of millions of religiously diverse young people across the world who are interacting with increasing frequency. This interaction tends in one of two directions--conflict or cooperation. Interfaith Youth Core envisions a world in which religiously diverse young people interact peacefully and cooperate to serve their communities, thereby strengthening civil society and stabilizing global politics. www.ifyc.org/resources.php

The Institute for the Study and Promotion of Race and Culture
We at ISPRC are committed to disseminating resources that promote the study of race and culture across the world and promote social justice in research and practice at home and abroad. The following pages scratch the surface of such resources and provide information about resources received by ISPRC to future a social justice mission. It is hoped though, that the information therein instigates and supports actions that are socially just.

Social Justice Training Institute
Since December of 1998, the Social Justice Training Institute has been providing an opportunity for individuals committed to issues of inclusion to develop their skills in the areas of dialogue and connectedness. Over 400 professional colleagues have participated in this experience to date. We are now expanding the experience to include an opportunity for students to gather and do some "personal work" related to social justice issues.

Student Activist Network
The Leadership Conference on Civil Rights (LCCR) and the Leadership Conference on Civil Rights Education Fund (LCCREF)/Americans for a Fair Chance (AFC) are pleased to launch a new student site that showcases critical student work in support of affirmative action and other important issues on campuses nationwide. The site will help students connect with one another in order to build a strong Student Activist Network. For students and driven by students, SAN encourages student activists to help shape content by submitting story ideas, news of activities on campus, and personal stories of activism.

Tools for Organizers, Activists, Educators and Other Hell-Raisers
There are a lot of good progressive web sites, packed with solid, issue-oriented material, meant to raise consciousness and give people the ideas and facts they need to be effective activists and educators. But often there's an assumption that the reader is prepared to put these ideas right to use--that they'll just know how to translate them into organizing efforts and outreach projects and public presentations. It isn't always that easy. Especially if you're new at working with a group, or trying to start one up, before you're all ready to charge out and change the world, you need to do some groundwork. You need to build a strong, cohesive organization with a clear sense of its mission and an ability to focus its energies efficiently and creatively.
