Nashville Religion Communicators Council Puts Research Into Action

The Nashville Chapter of the Religion Communicators Council (RCC) meets monthly to talk about topics of interest and hear from professionals in religious communications.  

How does one take research and put it into action? This was the topic of discussion for the most recent meeting of the Religion Communicators Council, a group of religious communications professionals who meet monthly.

The Religion Communicators Council (RCC) is an interfaith association of religion communicators at work in print and electronic communication, marketing and public relations. The Nashville Chapter recently heard from Sheila King & Magda Vaughn, two research professionals, who presented the topic of the day “Research 101: Putting Research Into Action.”

The meeting took place in early April at the Church of Scientology in Nashville.

King & Vaughn presented important information related to utilizing research to its fullest. “We were glad to have them present at today’s meeting. This is especially vital as we need to be able to use research for future projects, and the tips were wonderful,” says Julie Brinker, Communications Coordinator for the Nashville RCC.

The RCC has members from every faith group and walk of life including Baha’is, Christians, Jews, Muslims, Scientologists, Sikhs, Hindus and more. The RCC, founded in 1929, is an association of communications professionals who work for and with a diverse group of faith-based organizations in the areas of communications, public relations, advertising and development. The RCC provides opportunities for communicators to learn from each other. Together, RCC members promote excellence in the communication of faith and values in the public arena.
