Peace Fresno is an educational organization based at the Fresno Center for Nonviolence. It was founded by community members dedicated to peaceful resolution to conflict. Its mission is to seek effective nonviolent responses to terrorism. By conscientiously exploring and identifying peaceful options in our search for justice, we act to break the endless cycle of violence and counter-violence.
