WHO ARE WE?
Citizen's Action for Peace, (CAP), is the successor to, or perhaps the continuation of, the Redlands Peace Group, which began in 1980. CAP began in September of 2002 in response to the buildup to the war in Iraq. CAP works toward the realization of a more equitable, democratic, and safer world through nonviolent political and social action. CAP is not officially affiliated with any national or international organization although communication and cooperative action with many other groups whose goals and beliefs are similar is a frequent occurrence. CAP is funded entirely through individual donations. These are not tax deductible as that status limits the kinds of political actions in which a group may become involved.
