PUT YOUR FAITH INTO ACTION
advocate for justice with Texas’ original interfaith policy network
We equip faith leaders and their congregations with the information, opportunities, and outreach tools to educate their communities and engage with lawmakers on pressing public policy issues. We help people live out their faith in the public square, moving the faith community from charity to justice.

MORE UNITES US THAN DIVIDES US
Texas Impact is an interfaith organization. We bring together diverse people from across Texas to advocate on behalf of a common good.
With members in every legislative district in Texas, we represent the voices of mainstream faith communities. Our membership includes denominational bodies, social action networks, local congregations, ministerial alliances, and individuals.
According to an independent analysis by a bipartisan public relations firm, our members are more civically engaged and less partisan than other Texas voters. Our individual membership is evenly split in party affiliation, and our individual members are four times more likely to vote in primary elections than the average Texas registered voter.
