Inland Congregations United for Change (ICUC) is a faith-based, grassroots nonpartisan federation of 63 member interfaith congregations representing more than 60,000 families across the Inland Empire. The mission of ICUC is to assist communities of faith who desire to initiate or deepen social ministry within their congregation. Professional community organizers train congregation members in the principles of faith-based civic engagement and coach leaders through self-selected, relevant and practical community organization efforts. Through these efforts, individual participants develop public leadership skills and become catalysts of positive change within their congregations, neighborhoods and cities.
