This site gathers information and resources as part of the World Religions In Missouri (WRIM) project.
The WRIM Project works to improve the understanding of Missouri public school teachers about issues in religious diversity and teaching religion in the schools, in order to build bridges of understanding in communities. This summer (June 2010) the project will host a professional development workshop for K-12 mid-Missouri public school teachers.
The project is managed by a project team of University of Missouri professors and is funded by the MU’s Center on Religion & the Professions, with a grant from the Missouri Humanities Council.
