\u00b0 Sign-up for one or more of our specific calls-to-action. The actions have been chosen to connect the dots between the issues and explore the many forms of nonviolence including education, constructive programs, healing work, direct action, and protests. You can join actions on Sept 21st (Int\u2019l Day of Peace) and Oct 2nd (Int\u2019l Day of Nonviolence). You can also choose a call-to-action that can be done any time between those dates.
