The DC Peace Team commits to unleashing the power of ordinary civilians to increasingly become nonviolent people so we can better resist injustice; and thus build a more sustainable just peace. The DC Peace Team lives this mission by: -deploying unarmed civilian protection units -providing training in key nonviolent skills -facilitating Restorative Justice Circles The unique niche we fill in the DC metro area and across the county is developing the tradition of nonviolence through unarmed protection or accompaniment, networking of partner organizations and community members, and collaborative projects that bring together the range of effective nonviolent skills we offer training in.
