[<[link removed] Policy Alliance>] Honoring the Legacy of our Founder [James Dobson <[link removed]>] Dear John, This morning we awoke to the news that Family Policy
Alliance’s founder, Dr. James C. Dobson, had passed into eternity at the age of
89. As a trusted advocate for faith, family, and biblical values, Dr. Dobson’s
legacy is unmatched and his life’s work continues to shape our nation. Dr. Dobson founded our organization in 2004 under the name
Focus on the Family Action, which eventually became Family Policy Alliance. His
vision was clear: to equip families with truth, empower state-level leaders,
and advance a biblical worldview in public policy and elections. Through his
foresight and prophetic voice, what started as a small initiative has
dramatically expanded the work of a national network of state Family Policy
Councils and alliances impacting legislation and public discourse across America. Dr. Dobson’s influence extended far beyond organizational
leadership. As a psychologist, broadcaster, and author, he used media and
messaging to encourage millions of families. With unwavering conviction, he
championed the sanctity of marriage, the dignity of life, and the importance
of parental rights, principles woven into the DNA of our movement. We are grateful for his decades of courage and leadership.
His belief in the power of civic engagement and cultural renewal still inspires
us. Dr. Dobson emphasized the responsibility of believers to be “salt and
light” in society, and we take that charge seriously. Dr. Dobson was a once-in-a-generation leader whose courage
to speak truth shaped the course of American family life. His vision for a
movement that would defend life, marriage, and religious freedom gave birth to
Family Policy Alliance, and his influence is still part of everything we do.
He not only built organizations, he built up people of faith to stand boldly
for biblical values in a culture that often opposes them. Dr. Dobson’s faith and unwavering stand for biblical truth
shaped not only this organization but impacted countless families across
America. As we reflect on his life and legacy, we will continue the work he
began with renewed conviction and gratitude. Family Policy Alliance remains committed to the mission he
entrusted to us: advancing biblical values through civic engagement, calling on
believers to pray, vote, and engage for a nation where God is honored,
religious freedom flourishes, families thrive and life is cherished. On a personal level, our thoughts and prayers are with Dr.
Dobson’s family and friends during this time of loss and also celebration of
his life, and we hope you will join us in thanking the Lord for his life and
impact in our country. With gratitude,
[Craig Signature] Craig DeRoche President & CEO
