South Coast Interfaith Council, Long Beach

The mission of the South Coast Interfaith Council (SCIC) is to promote mutual understanding, respect, appreciation, and cooperation among people of faith in the greater South Bay-Harbor-Long Beach-West Orange County area. It does this by extending hospitality, fostering community, offering educational opportunities, providing moral leadership, sharing in service, serving the youth, and working for justice. A 21-member Board of Directors, representing the diversity of faiths and cultures in Southern California, governs the organization.

The SCIC is committed to providing opportunities for conversation, partnership, education, hospitality, and celebration among its members, while advocating for the poor, fostering peace, respecting each other’s religious observances and, where appropriate, sharing together in common prayer.

The Council offers a variety of programs and events, which are open to the public.
