Established in 1994, Dallas Area Interfaith (DAI) was created as a  “University of Public Life” to teach people how to engage in the democratic traditions of our country.

We do this by helping ordinary people develop the skills to strengthen community, build bridges across longstanding divisions and take action to address root causes of injustice.

Our work touches on vital issues like quality education, community policing, healthcare access, dignified housing, and fair wages.

We stand as a non-partisan, multi-ethnic, mult-issue organization of congregations, schools, and non-profits across the North Texas.

DAI is part of the West/Southwest IAF, a network of broad-based institutional organizations building power to revitalize our democracy for constructive social and economic change.
