Our 任务

The Center for Engaged Religious Pluralism engages religiously diverse and non-faith perspectives to foster interreligious understanding and leadership, promoting practices and policies that address religious diversity in many publics. Through this work and the cultivation of “interfaith leaders,” the Center contributes to more 尊重ful, inclusive communities.

Our Vision

The Center aims to be, and to be known in academic, government, business, professional and non-profit forums and in the Saint Mary's College community as, an influential and effective champion of the value of pluralism through its mission-driven, engaged religious pluralism events, programs, and scholarship.

Our 值

The Center grounds its work in the 值 of liberty, equal dignity, conscience, and participation embodied in (even though not fully achieved by) the founding documents of the United States, 这是 America's Sacred Ground, and the Lasallian core principles (represented by the five-pointed star in our logo), in particular 尊重 for all persons and inclusive community.
