The campus is run by members of the Frontier Mission Fellowship. The US Center has been described as a frontier missions think tank or "missions Pentagon." Many ministries had their genesis at the Center or have been resident for a season before moving on to new locations.

The organization was founded by Ralph D. Winter, Dr. who was named among the top 25 Most Influential Evangelicals in America by TIME magazine.
