Why this is listed

Surfaced through Park Cities Presbyterian Church (Dallas–Fort Worth, TX), a vetted partner church, during Grain’s city-by-city review. Still to be confirmed: EIN and Form 990, tradition, and doctrinal statement.

How to start

  1. Open actforjustice.org (opens an external site) and read what Advocates for Community Transformation says about itself before you read anything else.
  2. Check the time it asks for: ongoing.
  3. Look at the filings below, then decide. Numbers are context, not a verdict.
  4. Tell your church. Going out is rarely meant to be done alone.
