President Donald Trump has named key advisors to lead the newly established White House Faith Office. Pastor Paula White-Cain will serve as Senior Advisor. Known for her global humanitarian work, White-Cain previously advised Trump on faith initiatives and chaired his Evangelical Advisory Board.
The President established the White House Faith Office to strengthen partnerships with faith-based organizations, houses of worship, and community groups. These entities, recognized for their role in uplifting families and local communities, will now have improved access to federal grants and programs. The administration also seeks to eliminate any barriers to religious liberty in federal policies.
Jennifer S. Korn, former Deputy Director of the White House Office of Public Liaison, will return as Deputy Assistant to the President and Faith Director. Korn has extensive experience in coalition engagement and served as Senior Advisor for America’s largest faith coalition.
Jackson Lane, who worked on faith outreach during the Trump-Vance 2024 campaign, joins as Special Assistant to the President and Deputy Director of Faith Engagement.
