Special Notice
Please note: Our office at 119 Winnebago remains closed
until further notice BUT WE ARE STILL HERE…
Due to a change in ownership and pending extensive renovations, we
needed to vacate the space that we have called home for over a
decade. Because the construction activity may take a year or more,
we are looking for another space and exploring other ways and places
to host programs.
If you need to contact us – we still receive our mail at 119 Winnebago Street
or email us at info@neipjc.org. Our landline telephone number is not
viable at this time. Thank you for your patience and continued support.
The Northeast Iowa Peace & Justice Center is a nonprofit organization creating initiatives to promote peace, human rights, local resilience and social and environmental justice. We incubate new ideas, offer resources and serve as a catalyst for action in Northeast Iowa
