AI Summary: This is a policy document (an Executive Order) establishing the White House Faith Office. This regulation establishes a new White House Faith Office within the Executive Office of the President to support and empower faith-based entities, community organizations, and houses of worship. The office will be housed in the Domestic Policy Council and led by a Senior Advisor, with functions including consulting with faith and community leaders, making recommendations to the President about policies affecting faith-based organizations, coordinating training and grant opportunities, supporting religious liberty, and working to reduce barriers to participation of faith-based organizations in government programs. The office will focus on areas such as protecting women and children, strengthening families, promoting work and self-sufficiency, defending religious liberty, and supporting various community initiatives. The Executive Order amends several previous executive orders related to faith-based initiatives, replacing references to the previous "White House Office of Faith-Based and Community Initiatives" with the new "White House Faith Office" and making other technical changes to existing orders. The document emphasizes the government's commitment to ensuring faith-based organizations can compete fairly for federal funding and participate fully in government-supported programs while protecting religious liberty.
