ABOUT THE CENTER

misinterpretations of faith narratives that promote polarizing, inequitable ideologies contribute to systemic harm towards marginalized groups. At the center we create spaces for people of all faiths to learn, unlearn and act - building a community grounded in equity and empathy.

Working at the intersection of sacred story and social justice, The St. Charles Center is a gathering place and incubator engaging people in action that creates a just and equitable Greater New Orleans and the world beyond.

“Attending events at the St. Charles Center for Faith and Action has been exactly the type of community learning that I have been looking for in these distressing times. Each event I’ve attended has included experts on the topics at hand who led with curiosity, rather than judgement, and who ultimately left me feeling hopeful for the future.” - 2025 Workshop Attendee

“Every social justice movement in the United States has been infused with the energy of faith leaders who ignite our moral imagination and connect us with our ability to re-create the world around us. ”
