Call for 7th Annual San Francisco Peacemaker Awards Nominations

Greetings from Community Boards, San Francisco's public conflict resolution center!  We're celebrating our 40th anniversary and have been planning for our next forty years.

As you may know, Community Boards provides a citywide array of conflict resolution services: mediation, conflict coaching, facilitation, and training. Our Neighborhood Mediation Program is the oldest public mediation program in the U.S.

We need your assistance and guidance in selecting the nominees for our upcoming 7th Annual San Francisco Peacemaker Awards.

Our three awards honor an individual, an organization, and a youth for their contributions in making San Francisco communities safer and healthier places to live.

As a community stakeholder, please take a moment to nominate individuals and/or organizations working in San Francisco to promote peacemaking and conflict resolution through community engagement, direct social services, or public education.

We eagerly await your response, and thank you in advance for your participation!

Nominations deadline: Friday, March 10, 2017.
