General Public
In the aftermath of September 11th, people of all faiths are sensing the need
to come together, learn more about each other, and share our commonalities while
understanding our differences. At ISBN, we feel the key to understanding is
education and dialogue. To this end, we have created a presentation especially
designed for faith based organizations and community centers to learn more about
the religion of Islam and its 1.5 billion adherents. Our trained speakers make
this presentation at your convenience in a manner that is respectful of First
Amendment based religious freedom, while answering the most basic questions
about this important topic.
Fees: No cost; however, we do accept donations.
