Colonialism, slavery, war, genocide, and economic devastation leave legacies of trauma that can perpetuate cycles of violence. AFSC works to promote community-wide healing and restorative forms of justice so that people have an opportunity to speak their truths, heal from trauma, and seek reconciliation with one another.
American Friends Service Committee is a Quaker organization devoted to service, development, and peace programs throughout the world. Our work is based on the belief in the worth of every person, and faith in the power of love to overcome violence and injustice.
