Racial Equity Ministry
Racial Equity
Racial equity ministries of the Presbyterian Church (U.S.A.) focuses on addressing and supporting the unique needs and experiences of various racial and multiethnic communities.
This work is expressed through curriculum for churches, anti-racism trainings, and resources for congregations. Another expression of this commitment to racial equity is church policy, which has been shaped and formed by the General Assembly over several decades.
Through assembly committees and PC(USA) offices such as Intercultural Ministries and Support for Communities and Congregations of Color, the church provides resources, programs, and advocacy to help address systemic inequalities and support communities’ spiritual, social, and economic well-being. Sharing the gospel in an increasingly diverse culture involves understanding and respecting different communities’ backgrounds, experiences, and perspectives.
