FACES addresses the concerns and issues of the dynamic multicultural East Bay community by encouraging citizens to be actively engaged in creating harmonious urban environments that improve the lives of all people.
In 1998, the leaders of East Bay Church of Religious Science established FACES as a 501c3 California non-profit benefit corporation. It was envisioned that it would serve as the social service and community benefit arm of the church. The goal was for FACES to provide programs and services to uplift, empower and enhance the lives of disadvantaged community members. Since its inception FACES has mobilized and collaborated with city, state and federal agencies and commissions; community-based arts, health, and social change organizations; educational institutions; public and private funders; the service groups of faith-based organizations and talented individuals. These collaborations have engaged FACES in offering creative, innovative, whole systems programs bringing together an array of resources that meet the needs of the community. As a result, FACES has succeeded in establishing a reputation for offering quality innovative trainings, workshops, and service programs.
