The Religious Coalition for the Freedom to Marry is a group of more than 850 rabbis, ministers, and faith leaders, as well as congregations and faith-based organizations from 26 faith traditions. We support civil marriage rights for same-sex couples and families as a matter of religious freedom and civil rights. We help citizens understand the distinction between civil and religious marriage. We provide religious support and pastoral care for same-sex couples and families as well as educational programs and projects that support the full inclusion of same-sex families into our society.
