The Interfaith Center on Corporate Responsibility is an organization that advocates for better labor laws, financial services, sustainable development, and accessible health care. It is their mission to incorporate social values into corporate actions. Founded in 1971, the ICCR has been an integral part of advocating for resilient and sustainable corporations, but has been met with pushback from industries that do not want to follow regulation and social values. More information about programs, resources, and membership is available on their website.
The Interfaith Center on Corporate Responsibility published the "ICCR's Social Sustainability Resource Guide: Building Sustainable Communities through Multi-Party Collaboration" to instruct corporations and businesses on how to create a more sustainable environment to grow economically. The ICCR is encouraging projects that have long term impacts on the society rather than short term success. From their website:
"In the same way that we are asking companies to look beyond short-term profits and to focus on creating sustainable growth, we are asking them to understand how their initiatives will enhance the well-being of the communities they are intended to reach not just now, but 10, 20 and 50 years from now."
