This day is also a celebration of our incredible Peace Committee members who have been leading the way and doing the vital work on the ground. Come out to support, connect, and enjoy a vibrant day with your community!

• Connection: Meet your neighbors and the Peace Committee members driving real change.

Peace Committees are teams of local residents trained in non-violent conflict resolution. They step up by listening to neighbors, calming disagreements, and guiding peaceful solutions—right here in East Oakland’s 40x40 area (Seminary to 105th, MacArthur to the Bay).
