The order reestablishes the White House Office of Faith-Based and Neighborhood Partnerships, a 20-year-old initiative first put in place by President George W. Bush.
Rogers will also serve on the White House Domestic Policy Council as senior director for faith and public policy.
Josh Dickson, who was the Biden campaign’s national faith engagement director, will be deputy director.
