White House Faith Office
In February 2025, U.S. President Donald Trump ordered the creation of the White House Faith Office, a new White House office. According to the order creating the office, its purpose is to "assist faith-based entities, community organizations, and houses of worship in their efforts to strengthen American families, promote work and self-sufficiency, and protect religious liberty".[1] The organization replaces the former White House Office of Faith-Based and Community Initiatives, and will be part of the Domestic Policy Council.[2][3]
The televangelist Paula White-Cain, a proponent of prosperity theology, was appointed to lead the Faith Office.[4][5]
