Our new four-part series can help. We’ll help you develop concrete skills to avoid calling law enforcement unless it’s absolutely necessary. That includes exploring community-based alternatives to ensure safety for all of our neighbors. [Korea Peace Advocacy Week]( June 5- 9 Every year, Korea Peace Advocacy Week brings together hundreds of people around the U.S. to meet with congressional staff on legislation supporting peace in Korea. Our efforts have built congressional support to formally end the Korean War, reunite Korean families, and foster diplomacy. As tensions escalate on the Korean Peninsula, we hope you will join us this year to advocate for a transformative, peace-first approach. Register today. [Global Convening on Migrant Justice (New York City)]( June 9, 9 a.m. ET / 6 a.m. PT Join AFSC staff from across our global programs to discuss Quaker approaches to migration and forced displacement.
