As of August 2023 it's website is offline and it the organisation appears to be inactive.
When active the Religious Institute stated that it's initial purpose was "to change the way America understands the relationship of sexuality and religion". Among its objectives were building a network of clergy and other religious leaders who were dedicated to what it called sexual justice, promoting sexuality education in faith communities, and educating policymakers and the general public about a progressive religious view of sexuality.
