The InterFaith Conference of Metropolitan Washington (IFC or IFCMW) is an interfaith non-profit organization based in Washington, D.C.. The organization was founded in 1978 and the Reverend Clark Lobenstine served as the first Executive Director from 1979-2014. The IFC brings together eleven historic faith communities to promote dialogue, understanding and a sense of community to work cooperatively for social and economic justice through the DC region. The IFC has three programs, The Center for Advancing Justice (TCAJ), The Center for Building Community (TCBC), and The Center for Nurturing Understanding (TCNU).
