USAID collaborates with faith-based and community groups to improve the sustainability of the Agency's programs and support partner countries’ self-reliance. 

Faith-based and community organizations serve some of the most vulnerable and disadvantaged parts of the world. These organizations’ networks, insights, and resources give them an often underutilized ability to help address global development challenges.

The Center for Faith and Opportunity Initiatives (CFOI) works to strengthen USAID’s collaboration with faith-based and community organizations. Learn more about CFOI here.
