Covenant Law shares our conviction that religious freedom is for everyone, everywhere. Religious organizations need legal counsel with deep experience representing schools, businesses, health clinics, adoption agencies, and other entities with a religious identity and mission. So when we developed the Institutional Governance module of the RFI Crisis Toolkit for Religious Institutions, we partnered with one of the best religious liberty attorneys in America, our long-time collaborator, Ian Speir.
