Grants

Auburn Theological Seminary
Amount Awarded: $7,500
for developing a Face to Face/Faith to Faith program curriculum with a gender lens

Face to Face/Faith to Faith is an international, multifaith youth leadership program of Auburn Theological Seminary. Auburn has been energized and informed by bridging social and theological divides since its founding by Presbyterians in 1818. The Seminary participated in the forward-looking social movements of the time and has promoted religious and social liberty throughout its history. No longer a degree-granting institution, Auburn continually builds on its successful programs to address new challenges and reach expanding audiences. Auburn Theological Seminary first began focusing on multifaith education in the 1990s. Early experiments turned to more formalized programs, and in 2000 Auburn confirmed its commitment to deepening understanding between and among faith traditions for the good of all by founding the Center for Multifaith Education. At the same time, under the leadership of board member Rabbi Peter J. Rubinstein (later to become board president), Auburn began to explore how it might apply its expertise in adult multifaith education to work with youth. Face to Face/Faith to Faith was born.

At the time the grant was given, the curriculum of Face to Face was based on identity, conflict management and resolution, communication skills, and religion. In their 2008-2009 program year, Auburn proposed to add an explicit gender component to the foundation of the Face to Face curriculum.
