Protecting Places of Worship Virtual Forum

August 27, 2020 @ 1:00 pm - 2:30 pm

As of 2019, nearly 80% of hate crimes in the U.S. are against religious and racial minorities, including their houses of worship and religious institutions.

The Protecting Places of Worship Forum, facilitated by the U.S. Department of Justice Community Relations Service, will educate faith leaders on hate crimes laws and statistics; how to prevent and respond to hate crimes that target houses of worship and religious institutions; and how to secure places of worship leveraging resources and best practices from government agencies. Speakers include representatives from the U.S. Department of Homeland Security, Federal Bureau of Investigation, and Federal Emergency Management Agency.
