The mission of the Citizens for Peace is to be responsive community leaders centered on learning, educating and facilitating the practices and principles of non-violence in the world.
We are a non-profit, (591 (c4) organization, working to create a culture of peace in Michigan, the United States, and the world. We hold monthly educational meetings at 7 p.m. Many of our future meetings will be held on Zoom.
Our activities and educational outreach are planting the seeds of peace that will grow a more peaceful world.
The Citizens for Peace is a group of concerned citizens dedicated to creating a more peaceful world since Veteran’s Day, 2003. In the last 17 years, we have worked tirelessly to educate about peace and nonviolence. We have organized into three areas:
1. Growing as peacemakers
2. Educating on nonviolence
3. Influencing the political agenda
How will we accomplish our mission?
By raising awareness of the possibility of creating a peaceful world using non-violent communication, diplomacy, and conflict resolution.
By expressing our concerns to elected representatives,
and encouraging support of legislation that would reduce
violence and improve the lives of all people.
By providing resources on peace and nonviolence to area activists and the community.
By reaching out and supporting other individuals and groups promoting peace and peaceful conflict resolution locally, nationally and internationally.
