About [Edit]
Sound Nonviolent Opponents of War (SNOW Coalition) is a coalition of peace activists and organizations in the Puget Sound Region of Washington State, USA.
It has a website and listservs for activists in each city and neighborhood to organize to promote peace.
SNOW was formed in response to the Iraq War, but it also supports peace efforts in other parts of the world.
We need more people in the Puget Sound region to become active. Please visit the website, attend an event, and see how you can contribute to our Cascadian peace movement.
SNOW Coalition is part of the Western Washington Fellowship for Reconciliation so the address above is the headquarters for WWFR.
