The Samuel DeWitt Proctor Conference, Inc. (SDPC), a 501(c)(3), 501(c)4 and United Nations Non-Governmental Organization, represents a cross section of progressive African American faith leaders and their congregations in the United States. Founded in 2003, the SDPC was called into being to continue the rich legacy of the faith communitys engagement in issues of social justice. The mission of the Samuel DeWitt Proctor Conference (SDPC) is to nurture, sustain, and mobilize the African American faith community in collaboration with civic, corporate, and philanthropic leaders to address critical needs of human and social justice within local, national, and global communities. SDPC seeks to strengthen the individual and collective capacity of thought leaders and activists in the church, academy, and community through education, advocacy, and activism. Through partnerships and collaborations with others from the academic, business, policy and not for profit communities, the skills, talents and resources of SDPC supporters are maximized by sharing information and models of successful outreach strategies. SDPC focuses its work on education, advocacy and activism, promoting justice by resourcing and organizing partner churches, clergy and lay leaders to address the diverse concerns of communities.
