Mission Statement

Peace House serves the local and regional community as a resource center for non-violence that encourages individual and group participation to further peace and social justice issues.

Purpose

Purpose Peace House is a locally based, not-for-profit, community organization. We recognize the essential unity of all life. Operating from principles of non-violence and compassion, we explore ways in which people can live cooperatively with one another and with the earth. Peace House provides an avenue for groups and individuals to participate in social change for peace with justice.

Our emphasis is on building reconciliation between conflicting groups and people by encouraging understanding of the root causes of conflicts. Peace House serves as a center for education, outreach and action. While holding a global consciousness we choose to act on a local level. We provide our community with a resource center and serve as a communication link between individuals and groups. We serve as a public advocate for conflict resolution as an alternative to violence on a personal, community and global scale.
