Peace and Justice

The healthiest communities are those that are free from violence.

Our members work to address gun violence, prevent the use or spread of nuclear weapons and nuclear power, and reduce defense expenditures in order to reinvest those savings in ways that will help the most vulnerable members of our communities. Our goal is to create a healthy, peaceful, and just world.
