ITC Mission Statement
The Interdenominational Theological Center (ITC) is a consortium
of denominational seminaries whose mission is to educate
Christian leaders for ministry and service in the Church and the
global community. The ITC educates and nurtures women and men
who commit to and practice a liberating and transforming spirituality;
academic discipline; religious, gender, and cultural diversity; and
justice and peace.

ITC Vision
EDUCATING AND NURTURING LEADERS TO TRANSFORM THE
CHURCH AND WORLD FOR THE COMMON GOOD

The ITC embarks upon the twenty-first century with a two-fold
vision that honors its historic mission and embraces its promising
future. The first facet of the vision builds on a century-old
commitment initially established by the constituent seminaries.
With an international reputation for producing outstanding clergy
and a long-standing tradition of community outreach, The ITC is
committed to academic excellence in training leaders, teachers,
pastors, and preachers with an exceptional dedication to serving
the church and society.

The ITC is dedicated to producing public theologians - men and
women who are intellectually keen, politically sophisticated,
economically savvy, culturally sensitive, family friendly, techno-
logically literate, and spiritually astute. A key role of these public
theologians is to serve as liaisons - facilitators of new alliances -
between America's churches and other nonprofit organizations,
corporations, foundations, and government entities.

The second facet of The ITC's vision is to expand the variety and
effectiveness of partnerships to meet the challenges confronting
our nation's communities. The ITC is establishing itself as a
nationwide resource on the Black Church's role in the renewal of
American society. The program, which includes a research center,
think tank, and clearinghouse, will compile data, analyze issues,
develop leadership, inform the public, and encourage faith-based
solutions to community problems. Through this initiative, The ITC
will bring together leaders from the church, academia, secular
nonprofit organizations, corporations, foundations, government,
and communities to share insights and develop solutions to
address the social and moral crises plaguing the nation's
communities.
