The Peace Action Fund of New York State:
Peace Action is dedicated to promoting the non-violent resolution of conflict, the abolition of nuclear weapons, halting the global spread of conventional arms, building a human rights culture and supporting human needs instead of militarism. We pursue these goals through the production and dissemination of educational materials for the public, activists and policy makers, as well as through community organizing initiatives and public outreach. The Peace Action Fund of New York State is a non-partisan, non-profit 501(c)3 organization.
Peace Action New York State:
Peace Action New York State is a 501(c)4 membership organization that uses lobbying and direct political action to complement the work of the Peace Action Fund of New York State. We currently have eighteen chapters and over 3000 members in New York State. As we are a grassroots organization, our local chapters take a large lead in determining our agenda. Each chapter works on local peace issues as well as state, national and global concerns. For more information about chapter projects, please see our chapters list and visit their individual websites.
