The Stan Greenspon Center for Peace and Social Justice is Where Hope Takes Hold
History shows that courage in the face of darkness saves lives and shifts outcomes. Courage rooted in hope.
In every instance where people have had to overcome unspeakable acts of violence, discrimination, and persecution, hope has lead the way. Hope for peace, for love, and for equality.
We are the Stan Greenspon Center for Peace and Social Justice, and we exist to give voice to the voiceless, and form community partnerships to create positive change. We draw on history to guide our way as we advocate for those who need a spark of hope to lead them out of despair.

Bring the lessons of the past into conversation with our present in order to intentionally shape a better future for you and your students.
We offer professional development for educators, assistance to administrators and teachers responding to incidents of hate, and programs for middle schools and high schools, youth groups and home school communities.
