The Institute for Islamic, Christian, and Jewish Studies emerged out of the conviction that centuries of religious ignorance, fear, and hostility could be disarmed through sustained inter-religious study and conversation. Today, ICJS helps Baltimore-area residents to consider and use one’s theological perspective to open new avenues to discussion of difficult topics, such as “what is justice”? In recent years, ICJS has undergone multiple and significant transitions: adding a scholar of Islam and changing its name; the retirement of the founding Executive Director after nearly 30 years; and new staff and board leadership. This Management Assistance Grant provided funds to develop a new strategic plan for the organization.
