Do the Charitable Choice laws mean that faith-based organizations can apply for funds only from these four Federal programs?
No. The Charitable Choice laws merely set out clear guidelines for government funding of faith-based organizations in these four programs. However, as we have outlined earlier, all Federal programs that permit nonprofit organizations to apply for funds are also open to faith-based organizations. President Bush s Faith-Based and Community Initiative is designed to make sure that the playing field is level for all groups that apply for funding from any Federal program.
