NRCAT was launched during the conference, “Theology, International Law and Torture: A Conference on Human Rights and Religious Commitment,” which was held on January 13-16, 2006, at Princeton Theological Seminary. Dr. George Hunsinger, Professor of Theology at Princeton Theological Seminary, convened the conference to enable the religious community to work for an end to U.S.-sponsored torture.
In the last six years, NRCAT has grown to more than 60,000 supporters, partner organizations in 21 states, and over 300 religious organizations as members.

Please join in this time of honoring the U.S. religious community for its efforts to end U.S.-sponsored torture forever:
- Call for an end to the use of prolonged solitary confinement:
Sign the statement by people of faith asking federal and state governments to end the use of prolonged solitary confinement.
- Urge President Obama and Congress to apologize to Maher Arar, who suffered torture as a result of the U.S. extraordinary rendition program:
- Involve your congregation:
- Support our efforts to grow the moral consensus that torture is always wrong:
Thank you for everything you have done to end torture.
