Clergy Conversations #11

The Samuel DeWitt Proctor Conference, Inc. (SDPC) is a nonprofit organization and United Nations NGO (Non-Governmental Organization) sharply focused on advancing the mission to nurture, support and mobilize African American faith, civic, corporate and philanthropic leaders to address critical needs of human and social justice within local, national and global communities. Named to honor the late Rev. Dr. Samuel DeWitt Proctor - a global 20th century educator, theologian, and civic leader - the overarching organization’s goals are to strengthen the individual and collective capacity of thought leaders and activists in the academy, church and community through education, advocacy and activism. Founded in 2003, it is a respected network of ecumenical congregations, clergy and lay leaders that embodies the values of academic excellence, transgenerational engagement, and community outreach as evidence of faith and Christian witness.

Statement on Discrimination, Intimidation, and Harassment

 

Since our inception, the Samuel DeWitt Proctor Conference (SDPC), Inc. has sought to nurture, sustain, and mobilize the African American faith community – in collaboration with civic, corporate, and philanthropic leaders – to address critical needs of human rights and social justice within local, national, and global communities. As a trusted interdenominational justice organization, it is our priority to be the place and space for ALL- radically inclusive and anchored in love. To that end, SDPC is an organization that has no tolerance for discrimination, abuse, homophobia, all forms of gender-based violence, sexual impropriety, intimidation, or harassment based upon age, citizenship status, diverse-abilities, ethnicity, gender, national origin, race, and sexual orientation. The SDPC adheres to these principles and expectations to respect the rights of others to ensure a safe nonviolent environment of its work and event spaces.

Top Scams to Watch Out For. November 2023


Scams evolve as technology advances. You always need to be on the lookout for new, deceptive techniques scammers use to steal your money and identity.

Government agencies such as the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau (CFPB) and the Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) work to stay ahead of fraudsters and keep you safe. 

Here are some scams government agencies want you to be aware of:

  • Robocalls and scam texts: If you’re tired of scam texts and robocalls, you’re not alone. In fact, they’re the Federal Communications Commission’s top consumer complaint. Fortunately, there are steps you can take to reduce and block these unwanted annoyances.
  • Romance scams: Scammers use dating and social media sites to manipulate or steal from people seeking love. If you suspect an online relationship is a scam, stop all contact, and file a complaint with the FBI.
  • Spoofing: Someone may disguise an email address or phone number to convince you they’re a trusted source. Often, it is just by changing one letter, symbol, or number. Learn how to protect yourself from spoofers.
  • Charity scams: Thieves pose as a real charity or claim to represent a cause that appeals to you—and sounds real—to steal your money. Before donating to a charity, check its legitimacy. Contact the organization directly, or do research through a consumer protection agency such as the CFPB.

How you can help: report suspected scams immediately.
