Our PRRUCS Mission
Established within the School of Arts and Sciences (SAS) in 2004, the Program for Research on Religion and Urban Civil Society (PRRUCS) is dedicated to enriching and institutionalizing undergraduate liberal arts lecture courses and seminars in which religion is a central, topical, or thematic focus; supporting empirical "faith-factor" research on religion, especially as it relates to U.S. urban communities and contemporary social problems; and disseminating widely significant policy-relevant research ideas and findings. PRRUCS is supported in part by the Pew Charitable Trusts, and pursues certain of its advanced research and public communications activities in collaboration with other leading universities (Harvard, Princeton), think tanks (Brookings), and research intermediary organizations (P/PV, Pew Forum). PRRUCS, however, is solely responsible for the content of its publications and communications.
