Statement of Purpose:

The purpose of the Siouxland Peace Coalition is to unite all Siouxlanders to advocate for Peace, to express our opposition to the death and destruction of war, and to support conflict resolution through Just, Equitable and Peaceful means.

We do not engage in partisan politics, although it is our duty to publicly oppose policies of death and destruction and publicly support policies of Peace and Justice.

We shall use all, and only, peaceful, non-violent, methods of promoting and seeking our goal of Peace and Justice throughout the world.
