Texas Impact Wins Religion Communicators Council Award

The Religion Communicators Council (RCC) has recognized Texas Impact's publication Do This and You Will Live...A Justice Framework for Health Care with a DeRose-Hinkhouse award. The DeRose-Hinkhouse award recognizes the achievements of RCC members who demonstrate excellence as religion communicators. Entries in various categories are judged by professionals in the field. The juries are coordinated by local chapters across the country. The awards honor the late Victor DeRose and Paul M. Hinkhouse, leading lithographers in New York City.

The Religion Communicators Council is an interfaith association of religion communicators at work in print and electronic communication, marketing, and public relations. Established in 1929, it is the oldest association of religion communicators in America. There are fourteen local chapters around the country as well as members-at-large in cities where a chapter does not exist. The chapters meet monthly, providing an outlet for education and networking for the members. The chapters also serve to promote excellence in the communication of religious faith and values as well as understanding among diverse faith groups.
