Here is their mission. I think I would keep my child out of any program by this group.

The National Conference of Christians and Jews, changed its name in the 1990's to better reflect its mission to build whole and inclusive communities. The historic name confused many, who believed that NCCJ was an interfaith organization. Therefore the new name is not a change in vision, but rather an affirmation of our abiding commitment to embrace the diversity of our nation.

NCCJ is the only national human relations organization that focuses on a broad range of "isms," the multiple manifestations of discrimination and oppression that are based on one’s religion, race, gender, sexual orientation, bias crimes to racial profiling - the challenges ahead are real. To confront and overcome them, NCCJ maintains an abiding commitment to work with decision-makers and leaders to support their work to build an inclusive society.

Yep, that's what it sounded like to me.

The problem is that a lot of public service groups have been intimidated into putting touchy-feely, liberal, "inclusive" gobbledygook on their websites or written materials. So there may be some valuable programs that have disguised themselves under this sort of damaging language.

Hey - it may be a long shot, but it's possible!
