The Carolina Peace Center is a group of community members who aim towards justice for marginalized communities in North Carolina and beyond.

We believe in the use of nonviolent activism (such as building coalitions with other groups in the social justice community and with local civic leaders) and advocacy (lifting up the voices of those in oppressed groups) to promote the deep structural changes that are needed to establish a healthy, safe community for individuals of all racial and ethnic backgrounds, sexual orientations and gender identities, religious backgrounds, ability, economic status, and immigration status.
