Mission
To mobilize congregations and communities across economic, religious, racial, and ethnic boundaries so that, in partnership, we can work more effectively for a just and peaceful society and for spiritual growth and interfaith understanding.
Vision
“Faiths Together for Social Justice”
Six Goals
• Fight racial INJUSTICE
• Promote RESTORATIVE justice and reconciliation
• Develop understanding among FAITH COMMUNITIES
• Support ACTION projects for social justice
• Create HEALTHY RELATIONSHIPS across diversity
• Foster a CULTURE and openness to forgiving
Stakeholders
CMM invites congregations, community partner organizations, educational institutions, politicians, and individuals from the Greater Boston Area and beyond to support us in our efforts. That is why CMM is NOT registered as a religious organization, but rather, it is registered and operates as a 501c3 COMMUNITY organization. It takes a village. Some of the traditions represented in CMM’s membership include Jewish, Muslim, Protestant, Catholic, Quaker, Unitarian Universalist, Bahá’i, and secular allies inspired by conscience. We also work with entities beyond these traditions on many initiatives. To continue our work though, we need your support and financial commitment. Learn more by emailing info@coopmet.org.
