The White House Office of Faith-Based and Community Initiatives hosts regional conferences to educate social service providers about the Initiative and the Federal grants process. The conferences also provide participants with information about available government funding opportunities, legal requirements that come with the receipt of Federal funds, and successful practices from experienced organizations. The White House hosts the conferences with support from the Departments of Justice, Agriculture, Labor, Health and Human Services, Housing and Urban Development, Education, and the Agency for International Development.
