This Week in History American Friends Service Committee American Friends Service Committee in the news The American Friends Service Committee (AFSC) is a Quaker organization which works for social justice peace and reconciliation, abolition of the death penalty , and human rights , and provides humanitarian relief. The group was founded in as a combined effort by all three American branches of the Religious Society of Friends (commonly known as the Quakers ) and assisted civilian victims of war Because Quakers oppose violence in all of its forms and therefore refuse to serve in the military , the AFSC's original mission was to provide conscientious objector s (COs) to war with a constructive alternative to military service.

Today the AFSC has more than 200 staff working in dozens of programs throughout the United States and also works in 22 other nations, Its international programs often work in conjunction with the Canadian Friends Service Committee, Quaker Peace and Social Witness (formerly the British Friends Service Council), and Quaker Service Australia.

Cover Letter Explanatory Notes 16 Lists of Opportunities Greetings, Friends The sixteen lists cited below contain scores of opportunities ranging from weekend workcamps through year-long internships to two-year, Peace Corps types of programs, domestic and international, Quaker and non-Quaker. These lists are not comprehensive; they merely include those opportunities which we have become aware of. The Quaker Information Center has not investigated each of these programs and cannot endorse them. Anyone interested in pursuing a particular option should request detailed information from the source, read it carefully, ask questions, and request recommendations. The date at the end of an entry (1/12/02), for example indicates when that item was last brought up-to-date. The date at the bottom of each section indicates when any part of it was last edited/updated. We believe that about 85% of the information is correct at any given time. Since most of the entries are about annual opportunities, you may assume that if an opportunity is listed as occuring in September of 2002, it may well re-occur in September, 2003 and 2004. Contacting the sponsoring organization for their most recent program information would be the next logical step to take.

INTERNET VENTURE TURNS GAY MARRIAGE DEBATE INTO DIALOGUE SCORES ENROLL IN AMERICAN FRIENDS SERVICE COMMITTEE NEW ONLINE DISCUSSION GROUP FOR FAITH COMMUNITIES Contact: Janis D. Shields, Director Media and Public Relations American Friends Service Committee (215) 241-7060 AFTER HOURS: (302) 545-6596 May 18, 2004 - PHILADELPHIA, PA - How do you define marriage? Is it a matter for governments or faith communities to decide? Communities of faith all over the United States are grappling with questions about marriage and the place of lesbian and gay people in our faith communities and in the eyes of the law. Peace Building Dialogues are a new online community that offers ordinary people from diverse faith traditions a chance to bring their perspectives to an issue that has been dominated by pundits, politicians and their sound bites. The project is a collaboration between the American Friends Service Committee (AFSC) and Web Lab, a New York-based non-profit think tank that encourages and supports innovation on the Web. More than 300 people have registered for the Dialogues in less than a week - a record according to organizers. "The questions at the center of the marriage debate confront us in our homes and our places of worship," says Kay Whitlock, AFSC national representative for lesbian, gay, bisexual and transgender issues. "Only as family members and people of faith can we tackle these questions and search our own hearts for answers."
