| Vision and
Mission Statements
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.
Since 1915, The Fellowship of Reconciliation (FOR) has carried on
programs and educational projects concerned with domestic and international
peace and justice, nonviolent alternatives to conflict, and the
rights of conscience. A Nonviolent, Interfaith, tax exempt organization,
The FOR promotes nonviolence and has members from many religious
and ethnic traditions. It is a part of the International Fellowship
of Reconciliation (IFOR), which has affiliates in over 40 countries.
