Dartmouth’s robust Multi-Faith programs seek to build community across religious lines. We seek to honor the diversity of religious worldviews, be they Jewish, Christian, Muslim, Hindu, Baha’i, Native, Sikh, Buddhist, Agnostic, Atheist, Seeking, some combination of the above, or anything else. We look to build relationships through the exploration of narratives of faith, honoring common ground and shared concerns while not shying away from real and significant difference.

The Faith in Action Alternative Spring Break trip seeks to bring together students from a diversity of religious and moral traditions to explore the issue of youth and homelessness.

Many summers, during a warm July weekend to be determined, a small group of bold intrepid multi-faith participants takes to the woods of New Hampshire (in a Dartmouth cabin, of course) for a brief, meaningful and relaxing multi-faith retreat. Activities include cooking, hiking, communing with nature, deep discussions and forced arts and crafts.
