Get ready for the 2nd Annual "Be the Change" Youth Convergence May 21-23, 2010 at Koinonia Farms near Americus, GA
In 2009, the Georgia Peace and Justice Coalition (GPJC) held its inaugural youth convergence at Koinonia Farms near Americus, GA. The momentum generated from that event resulted in successful resistance to the establishment of a military-run high school in DeKalb County, statewide actions in October to protest the wars in Iraq and Afghanistan and deceptive military recruitment practices and a legislative proposal to limit access of military recruiters which has attracted national attention.
With this in mind, GPJC is planning the 2nd Annual “Be the Change” Youth Convergence May 21-23, 2010, again at Koinonia Farms. There's lots of work to do! Join a committee by contacting one of its members.
