About us

Volunteer members run the Center for the Working Poor, which is a non-profit that provides services for the poor and organizes protest and social movement activities. Our specialty is planning and organizing large protests, civil disobedience actions, hunger strikes, and other forms of strategic non-violence. We are a spiritual community that observes Christian contemplative practices; however, this is not a requirement for participation or membership at the Center. We have people of many faiths and beliefs in our community. We are looking for members that have occupations outside of the Center, who are interested in renting a room and in being in the community with us.
