Correspondence, minutes, publications, reports, research papers, tape recordings, and related records documenting the programs and services of the National Interfaith Coalition on Aging (NICA). Included are project files for its Survey on Programs for the Aging Under Religious Auspices and for Project GIST (Gerontology in Seminary Training), which sought to enhance the ability of the religious community to serve the needs of the aging by improving the knowledge and skills of seminary educators. Also documented is NICA's involvement with the White House Conference on Aging, which included sponsorship of the National Intra-Decade Conference on the Spiritual Well-Being of the Elderly (1977) and an official mini-conference of the 1981 WHCOA, the National Symposium on Spiritual and Ethical Value Systems Concerns, which NICA convened in 1980. NICA dissolved as a corporation and reorganized as a constituent unit of the National Council on the Aging, effective 1 January 1991.
