MISSION STATEMENT
Silence for Nonviolence spreads compassion and understanding through guided moments of silence focused on the interactions and relations between individuals and the people in their communities.
Our ground up approach is focused purely on each and every individual. Silence for Nonviolence is neither a political nor a religious organization. Therefore, we do not advocate or renounce any political or religious ideals or actions
On the same day and same time every week we will hold a moment of silence. Preceding this moment will be a quote or statement to inspire reflection about how our own thoughts and actions affect the violence around us. Sound too simple to work? Some of the best answers are the simplest.
