Greater Boston Interfaith Organization

The Greater Boston Interfaith Organization (GBIO) was founded in 1998 out of a vision for building power on a metropolitan level through broad based community organizing.   Institutional members (mostly congregations, but also unions, CDC’s and other organizations committed to social justice) strive to hold both public and private power holders accountable for their public responsibilities. 

A multi issue organization, GBIO foci come from within their institutions, from the concerns of the people.  In 2006, First Church became a dues paying member of GBIO and has been involved in its recent “Healthcare for All Campaign”. For more information, please contact Rev. Dan Smith at the church office or visit www.gbio.org.
