I want to talk to someone who understands military recruitment issues and the challenges of raising awareness about opting out in my state or community. Can you direct me to a real person nearby?
There are several web sites (see below) that provide localized resources for parents concerned about military recruitment and opt out issues. Two excellent resources are the local contacts provided by the American Friends Service Committee and Veterans for Peace. If you’re looking for someone working on these issues in your state, check out AFSC’s Youth and Militarism contact list or VFP’s Recruiter Education Contacts for phone numbers and e-mail addresses. You may be able to find someone in your state or perhaps even in your neighborhood. Remember, many of these folks are volunteers and very busy just like you, so please be considerate of their time.
