More Than Fifty Years of Activism for Peace and Justice 
The San Jose Peace Center was founded in 1957 by individuals profoundly concerned about peace and justice issues, especially the growth of nuclear arsenals and atmospheric nuclear testing. More than fifty years later, the Peace and Justice Center, along with our affiliated organizations, continues to educate and engage the South Bay community around critical issues of peace and justice, with a current focus on ending the wars in Iraq and Afghanistan.
We provide:
- Space and resources for individuals and organizations to meet, mobilize and organize.
- Publicity mechanisms such as a weekly calendar of progressive events in the South Bay, a quarterly newsletter, and a website.
- Public forums for education and creative action, including teach-ins, film showings, book discussion groups, and mass demonstrations.
If you want to be in touch with other organisations around the world that are concerned with related issues, you can find them on the
World Peace Database.
