Saving America?

The establishment of the White House Office of Faith-Based and Community Initiatives in 2001 initiated a significant shift in social program management, transferring responsibilities from government to religious organizations. This move, rooted in ideas from the Clinton era, sparked a contentious national debate regarding the effectiveness and accountability of these organizations, as well as the ethical implications of funding them with taxpayer dollars. The book explores these complex questions and the lack of definitive answers surrounding the initiative.
