National Directory of Youth Demilitarization Groups & Information (NNOMY G&I)

The NNOMY G&I Directory provides access to peace and counter-recruitment groups nationally that reflect a concern for the militarization of our youth in their public activism.

Listings in the National Directory of Youth Demilitarization Groups & Information provide essential information about national, and regional organizations that have youth demilitarization activism as a focus area of their activity. The peace organizations listed on this page have truth-in-recruitment or counter military recruitment activism as a primary activity within their organizations or resources represented to support youth demilitarization as an additional concern for action. Some international groups are listed that have had collaboration or contact with NNOMY.

To list your organization in the National Directory of Youth Demilitarization Groups, email your group information to admin(at)nnomy.org.  NNOMY ONLY LISTS Peace Groups that do youth demilitarization activism or host related materials on their online platforms. Put the name of your organization in the subject of the email and your contact information in the message and notify NNOMY that you want your organization listed! You can reference the type of activism we list by reviewing the groups below.

NOTE TO PUBLIC: If a group listed is not currently maintaining an active counter-recruitment project, you can still contact them for a referral to another group active in your region or to a national group that can address your inquiry. You can also contact NNOMY at admin(at)nnomy.org and make your inquiry with the NNOMY steering committee.
