Our Mission
The USC Center for Religion and Civic Culture advances the understanding of religion and society, and supports faith and community leaders in becoming full partners in the work of positive social change.
Building Knowledge
Our goal is to produce research that matters.
In Los Angeles and around the world, our empirical research on religion and society is conducted in conversation with community. Then, we create resources to bring insights that we gain from this conversation back to the community.
Strengthening Communities
CRCC’s programs and public events equip people of faith to become full partners in the work of positive social change.
Grounded in best practice, expertise from across USC and CRCC’s research with communities, our programs allow participants to build their skills, networks and leadership.
