The Charlottesville Center for Peace and Justice (CCPJ) is a longstanding organization dedicated to promoting nonviolent advocacy for peace and justice in Charlottesville, VA. With a focus on addressing various forms of violence, including racism, sexism, economic impoverishment, environmental destruction, mass incarceration, gun violence, and war, CCPJ actively speaks out against these issues and works towards creating a more peaceful and just society.
Through their initiatives, CCPJ aims to raise awareness, engage the community, and foster positive change. They organize regular events such as the Democracy Fridays Rally, held every second and fourth Friday of the month outside the Federal Courthouse, as well as meetings and discussions on important topics like the proposal to end the war in Gaza.
