Pre-conference workshop held
During our most recent annual meeting -- November of 2008 -- we hosted an afternoon pre-conference workshop with the Interfaith Youth Core at their center in downtown Chicago. The workshop took place on November 6 from 3 to 5 pm, 910 W. Van Buren, 3rd Floor, and was very well attended. We look forward to doing something similar in Dallas, in 2009.
If you have any suggestions for our Dallas meeting, please get in touch with Dr. Horell.

Introduction to our website
This site is divided -- at least at the moment! -- into three sections. The first one is a gathering place for various contextual issues. Here we are putting links to history, to various statements that specific religious communities have promulgated on peace and justice issues, to a glossary of terms, and to academic papers that we believe are pertinent.
The second section is comprised of practical resources and links to religious organizations that are specifically focused on peace and justice issues.
The third section is more general, and is comprised of anything else people think might be useful that didn't fit in the first two sections (this includes peace and justice issues more generally, not necessarily seen through religious lenses).
