The InterFaith Conference of Metropolitan Washington (IFC or IFCMW) is an interfaith non-profit organization based in Washington, D.C.. The organization was founded in 1978 and the Reverend Clark Lobenstine served as the first Executive Director from 1979-2014. The IFC brings together eleven historic faith communities to promote dialogue, understanding and a sense of community to work cooperatively for social and economic justice through the DC region.〔http://ifcmw.org/about-us/〕 The IFC has three programs, The Center for Advancing Justice (TCAJ), The Center for Building Community (TCBC), and The Center for Nurturing Understanding (TCNU). ==History== In an interview with the Berkley Center for Religion, Peace, and World Affairs in 2011, Executive Director Lobenstine said, "The Interfaith Conference was founded by the Islamic, Protestant, Roman Catholic, and Jewish communities and was the first organization to engage the Islamic community back in a metropolitan area in both interfaith dialogue and interfaith collaboration for justice in 1978. Since then Baha’i, Hindu, Buddhist, Jain, Latter Day Saint, Sikh, and Zoroastrian believers have joined. We now represent eleven faith-based communities. The founders before I started were clear that the Conference wouldn’t do service, but rather enact justice by building a just community as well as through interfaith dialogue. These principals continue to guide us still and our Center for Nurturing Understanding is focused on applying those ideals to young people."〔http://berkleycenter.georgetown.edu/interviews/a-discussion-with-reverend-clark-lobenstine-executive-director-of-the-interfaith-conference-of-metropolitan-washington〕
