AFSC - San
Francisco
Peace Education
AFSC provides support and leadership to strengthen and broaden a peace movement that bridges many issues and engages many communities. The Peace Education Program works with peace organizations and local communities to organize nonviolence programs for youth, interfaith dinners for women and religious leaders, speaking events, public actions, and popular education programs that include music and art to engage youth more effectively.
Middle East Peace
For more than thirty years, AFSC has brought Arabs and Israelis,
Jews, Christians and Muslims together in common cause to work
for justice and peace in the Middle East. In this region, the
Middle East Peace Program is a clearinghouse for Middle East
work in the Greater San Francisco Bay Area, organizing speaking
tours, public events, and education campaigns and working for
change in policy and practice to ensure Israeli security and
Palestinian self-determination and to end the US war against
Iraq.
EMAP
AFSC's Emergency and Material Assistance Program collects
and distributes materials for communities in the crisis of war
or natural disaster. The project also promotes advocacy of international
concerns, such as debt cancellation, and conducts public events
that touch upon AFSC's history or our work overseas. See the afghans
for Afghans campaign.
