On Saturday, May 2, we hosted our annual Peacemaker Awards Dinner!

We were honored to recognize Dr. Bernice King (Be A King), CEO of The King Center and youngest daughter of MLK Jr., Jorge Castillo, and Jack McGrory during this special evening.

After Peacemaker, we started thinking: what makes a Peacemaker? In this table discussion, NCRC’s Ashley Virtue and Steven Dinkin reflect on past and present NCRC Peacemakers and explore what peacemaking looks like in today’s world.

Thank you to everyone who joined us for Peacemaker!
