Westchester Martin Luther King, Jr. Institute for Nonviolence

Welcome to the website of the Westchester Martin Luther King, Jr. Institute for Nonviolence. 

Founded in 1987, the Institute's supports the larger movement for social justice by creating safe spaces for people to think and talk about violence, nonviolence and reconciliation, with the goal to change the way power and resources are distributed in our society. 

With Dr. King’s vision, principles, and activism as a foundation, we educate youth and adults about the power of nonviolent social action as a means to building effective communities.
