Leaders from across the U.S. have joined the FCNL Diaspora Organizer program. This initiative builds deep partnerships with members of diaspora communities across the United States. We are seeking to transform U.S. foreign policy by empowering diaspora communities to organize and influence legislators on a range of peace- and justice-related issues.
Representing diverse backgrounds—from Egypt to Niger, Bhutan to the Democratic Republic of Congo—these organizers spend a retreat engaged in deep discussions, advocacy training, and meeting with Hill staff. Then they serve a year building power in their communities to work for peace and justice.
