Disarmament
About the Disarmament Working Group
This group addresses threats of nuclear weapons, landmines, and biochemical weapons, as well as the alternative of economic conversion. It organizes speakers and programs to area congregations, schools, and community groups. Each August, the Disarmament Working Group organizes Come Together For Peace, a commemoration of the bombing of Hiroshima and Nagasaki and a celebration of the many courageous efforts to stop the use of violence and to build a worldwide culture of peace.
The Disarmament Working Group meets every 1st and 3rd Friday, at First Memorial Chuch, 730 Tappan, Ann Arbor. Please call in advance before the regular meeting schedule to ensure we are still at the usual time and place.
