Religion In <strong>American</strong> Life, Inc.<br />

Religion In <strong>American</strong> Life (RIAL) is a<br />

unique cooperative program <strong>of</strong> some 50 major<br />

national religious groups (Catholic, Eastern<br />

Orthodox, Jewish, Protestant, Muslim, etc.). It<br />

provides services for denominationally-supported,<br />

congregation-based outreach <strong>and</strong><br />

growth projects such as the current Invite a<br />

Friend program. These projects are promoted<br />

through national advertising campaigns reaching<br />

the <strong>American</strong> public by the use <strong>of</strong> all media.<br />

The ad campaigns are produced by a volunteer<br />

agency with production-distribution <strong>and</strong> administration<br />

costs funded by denominations <strong>and</strong><br />

business groups, as well as by individuals.<br />

Since 1949, RIAL ad campaign projects have<br />

been among the much coveted major campaigns<br />

<strong>of</strong> The Advertising Council. This results in as<br />

much as $35 million worth <strong>of</strong> time <strong>and</strong> space in<br />

a single year, contributed by media as a public<br />

service. Through RIAL, religious groups demonstrate<br />

respect for other traditions <strong>and</strong> the value <strong>of</strong><br />

religious freedom. The RIAL program also<br />

includes seminars <strong>and</strong> symposia, research <strong>and</strong><br />

leadership awards <strong>and</strong> produces a weekly syndicated<br />

radio broadcast, “SpiriTalk”.<br />
