Welcome to Faith-Based and Neighborhood Partnerships

That's why USDA's Center for Faith-Based and Neighborhood Partnerships reaches out and connects government with non-profit organizations - both secular and faith-based - to help people in need. Most people know USDA leads the way in agriculture, natural resources, and food. Many don't know we're also about strengthening communities, nourishing kids, and impacting lives. But we can't do it alone. The Center is here to help your organization connect to USDA priorities and programs so that together we're able to turn visions more effectively into reality. Now you know. Now we can.

For an overview of what we do here at the Center, you can listen to a recording of our introductory webinar or download the transcript (PDF, 157KB).

Learn more about the Center by signing up to receive bi-weekly email updates. We share relevant information for our partners on USDA programs and resources in each newsletter.
