What we aim to solve
Our programs
What are the organization's current programs, how do they measure success, and who do the programs serve?
Government Affairs
Our Government Affairs department educates leaders within Congress, the administration, the courts and state legislatures so that our policy research has impact.
FRC’s Government Affairs team advises leaders on Capitol Hill and at the state level on issues that affect the family, especially legislation that impacts marriage or families, threatens religious liberty or freedom of speech, raises taxes, expands government, or jeopardizes the sanctity of life.
Policy Research and Development
Our Policy department uses social science data to prove the vital link between thriving families and a healthy society.
FRC’s Marriage and Religion Research Institute is striving to promote strong, lasting marriages and the practice of religion as absolutely vital to a healthy society. Additionally, our Center for Life and Bioethics is advancing adult stem cell research as the ethical, effective alternative to embryonic stem cell research through a cutting-edge “Adult Stem Cells Saved My Life” multi-media campaign. Other areas of focus include education policy, the sanctity of life, and the impact of homosexuality on marriage, children and society.
Church Ministries
Educates and works with our pastor network across the country on biblical worldview issues. Provides publications and events to explain and train pastors and congregations on the topics of the day. Emphasis on religious liberty.
