Diablo For Peace is a non-partisan collective of families of the East Bay Area concerned about the future of our country. Our purpose is to bridge the gap between generations, from Baby Boomers to Millennials and younger, through constructive discussion, education, collaboration and peaceful activism. Our intention is to create an intergenerational and multicultural community that serves to protect the integrity of the place we proudly call home, and to create a safe environment for all people who feel vulnerable in this era of uncertainty and increased violence.

Diablo For Peace is a youth-led intersectional anti-racism movement born in the hills of Mount Diablo. We organize panels, community discussions, donation drives, and other community-based efforts to alleviate our towns of the toxic effects of xenophobia/racism, classism and sexism. We focus especially on amplifying marginalized voices: young students, families of color, immigrants and refugees, for example. Our events feature a diverse selection of speakers, from local high school students to nationally renown anti-racist activists.

We also publish quarterly zines. They are free to print and distribute.
