March 10-13, 2010: Creating a Culture of Peace: Nonviolence Training for Personal and Social Change Basic Training
Creating a Culture of Peace (CCP) is a nationwide nonviolence training program for community peacemaking that includes local follow-up projects.
Our CCP Basic Training is scheduled for March 10-13, 2010 [Details: 5:30-9:00 pm 3 evenings, Weds Mar 10; Thurs Mar 11; Fri Mar12; and 8:30 am – 9:00 pm All Day Saturday Mar 13] Cost is $100. Sliding scale and scholarships are available.
In February 2009, 30 local peacemakers completed CCP Basic Training in San Diego. The goal of one follow-up project that came out of the San Diego CCP Basic Training is to create a San Diego CCP community including trained local facilitators. A CCP Facilitator Training is planned for fall 2010 in San Diego. Basic Training is a pre-requisite to Facilitator Training and becoming a CCP Trainer. CCP is an incubator for communities to raise issues of concern and plan action projects that effect change. It is founded on the nonviolence principles of Mahatma Gandhi, Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr., Rosa Parks and Dorothy Day. CCP training analyzes social change and builds practical skills to address injustice and violence without resorting to violence. Its experiential and popular education approach draws out the wisdom, knowledge and experience of participants. This is the kind of training which so effectively prepared civil rights and labor activists.
CCP emphasizes two forms of nonviolence. Constructive Nonviolence involves creating the alternative culture we desire by developing new relationships, new practices, and new institutions. Nonviolent Resistance involves tactics designed to protest, and even to interfere with, injustice and oppression.
Local co-sponsors are Peace Resource Center (PRC) of San Diego, United African American Ministerial Action Council (UAAMAC), and Veterans for Peace, San Diego. Host is UAAMAC, 4981 Market St, San Diego.

Every year the SDCECCC, comprised of community volunteers, organizes a series of events with the Cesar E. Chavez Memorial Breakfast as a focal point of community inspiration. This year's theme is El Arte de la Inspiracion/The Art of Inspiration. The breakfast will focus upon the inpirational qualities of the legacy left to us by a great Amercian hero, Cesar E. Chavez.
The breakfast celebration always includes a focus upon our youth and our community leaders who pracitice in their daily lives and work the spirit of service and social justice. One of the highlights of the breakfast is the announcement of our student essay contest and scholarship winners. Each year several scholarships are awarded to San Diego and Imperial Valley youth in grades 9-12 and additional scholarhsips are available to migrant education students.
