The Peace Alliance is spearheading the national campaign to establish a United States Department of Peace. We have citizen organizers active in all 50 states.
The Department of Peace effort was launched in April of 2003. We launched officially in Washington D.C. with our first Department of Peace Conference in conjunction with the second introduction of the bill into the 108th congress on April 8th, 2003.
The campaign was originally organized under the Global Renaissance Alliance (now called "The Peace Alliance Foundation "), a 501(c)3 non-profit organization founded by our current Chair of the board of directors, Marianne Williamson. The Peace Alliance, a 501(c)4 non-profit organization and sister to the Foundation, was founded in May of 2004 and further organized the U.S. Department of Peace Campaign.
It is with the help of thousands of citizen activists that we have taken this campaign from a beautiful idea into a political reality. Together we are building the foundation and infrastructure for a more peaceful nation and world.
