Every day across our nation, countless faith leaders from diverse traditions are working together to counter hate and promote peace with justice.

This toolkit describes practical steps faith communities can take to prevent acts of hate, discrimination, and bias, and to demonstrate solidarity with targeted communities if such acts tragically do occur.
