Nashville Peacemakers | Promoting Peace with Unconditional Love
The Mission of Nashville Peacemakers is twofold—to give youth in distressed neighborhoods the basic life skills and self-worth to choose peaceful alternatives to violence, and to support the mothers whose child has been victimized. They offer three primary programs, “Back to Basics” aimed at helping teenage girls make smart choices in their lives; “Straight Talk” aimed at young men in their teens who are vulnerable to gang affiliation and violence; and finally their one-of-a-kind M.O.M. (Mothers Over Murder) Support Group that assists grieving mothers who have lost children to senseless violence. Find out more about Nashville Peacekeepers at their website listed below:
