The Interfaith Center for Peace and Justice awards the Peacemaker of the Year and Lifetime of Peacemaking Awards to local residents who have helped significantly in making us a more just and peaceful community. A ceremony celebrating the recipients is held every year. Each recipient receives a plaque, and materials (books, videos, etc.) are given to the Adams County Public library in honor of the recipients.

All are welcome to ICPJ’s 2019 Peacemaker Awards.
