Changes Underway at OPW
The OPW Board has decided to continue to produce a printed PeaceWorker for at least two more quarterly issues (Sept and Dec/Jan), but it will only be available to those willing to pay for it, either by subscribing at $15/year or by making a donation of $15 or more to Oregon PeaceWorks. However, both subscribers and non-subscriber can access every issue (monthly, except August and January) on this website, which will continue to improve over the next few months.
Calendar
To offer calendar items, post them at www.oregonprogressivenetwork.org or email: updates@oregonpeaceworks.org before the 12th of the month for following month’s issue.
