The campaign for a U.S. Department of Peace Offers an opportunity to participate in an historic citizen lobbying effort to create a Cabinet level Department of Peace. Domestically, the Department of Peace will develop policies and allocate resources to effectively reduce the levels of domestic and gang violence, child abuse, and various other forms of societal discord. It will also establish a Peace Academy to educate and train peace builders in cutting edge techniques for waging peace. Internationally, the Department will advise the President and Congress on the most sophisticated ideas and techniques regarding peace-creation among nations.
