BUILDING A CULTURE OF PEACE IN OUR COMMUNITIES

The Center serves as a resource for community organizations addressing a wide variety of issues and problems. We can provide information about the experiences of other groups, locally and nationally, that have tackled similar problems. Contact us for consultation and referral to useful resources. And watch this space for a listing of resources that will be posted in coming months.
