Nonviolence Leadership growing in Connecticut
The Connecticut Center for Nonviolence is making constant strides in
bringing Kingian Nonviolence training to different groups in CT.
This past Halloween weekend Jonathan Lewis joined us for a training of
youth trainers who are working on Peace in the Streets in New Haven, CT.
That training is going well and when it's completed these strong youth will
lead trainings to other youth. Let the POWERFUL CYCLE of TRANSFORMATION
continue!

About
The Gathering’s Mission
The mission of The Gathering is to build an Intergenerational, movement, rooted in history, cultures and non-violent direct action to heal communities, build collective strength and generate an environment of hope and opportunity.
Civil rights and social justice organizations have come to understand that collective action on a national basis is required to stop child incarceration and challenge the immoral process which perpetuates an unjust justice system. These groups are working under extremely difficult circumstances and many of them with little or no resources. The Gathering is a national movement that creates a coordinated space to 1) fortify relationships between regional groups, 2) support local endeavors and 3) enhance the ongoing organizing of non-violent direct action training. Central to its mission is strengthening our moral environment.

This quote is longer and very powerful, I used it yesterday in a sermon
that I was invited to offer for a Universalist Unitarian Church in Woodbury CT
on the Creating a Culture of Peace. I focused on Principle number 2, The Beloved Community if the Framework for the Future. It was good. We are talking about bringing a Two Day Core class to the UU Society of Greater Hartford.
Apart from that we are also leading a training at University of Hartford in January utilizing our two of our newly certified trainers. Lots going on in CT,
staying strong, knowing that we must continue to lift nonviolence into the mind and hearts of others whenever and where ever there is an opening to do so.
for 24 people in Hartford, CT. Shout out to Jonathan Lewis and
Richard Tarlaian senior trainers! CTCN continues to join the march in creating JUST PEACE for our country and the world.
for Nonviolence is working in collaboration with the University of Hartford and many leaders to create a Kingian Center in the capital city. Hartford has been hard hit by gang violence and all the trials of a broken unjust system, we are re-claiming the city and the movement for change continues. Shout out to the Gathering for Justice, we want to work directly with you as we progress. The time is now!
