Vision and Mission
| FOR's Vision: We envision a world of justice,
peace, and freedom. It is a revolutionary vision of a beloved
community where differences are respected, conflicts are addressed
nonviolently, oppressive structures are dismantled, and where
people live in harmony with the earth, nurtured by diverse spiritual
traditions that foster compassion, solidarity, and reconciliation.
FOR's Mission: FOR seeks to replace violence, war,
racism, and economic injustice with nonviolence, peace, and
justice. We are an interfaith organization committed to active
nonviolence as a transforming way of life and as a means of
radical change. We educate, train, build coalitions, and engage
in nonviolent and compassionate actions locally, nationally,
and globally.
