find allies!  

With all of the thousands of groups out there, how can you know where you best fit in?

Let us help! Scroll down to see a list of some of the biggest, best, and brightest organizations in working on the Iraq War.

To help you learn more about these groups, we’ve added a “review board” feature, where volunteers who’ve worked with a group before can report back on their experiences.

It’s kind of like “consumer reports” but for volunteers, instead.

( Note: Know of a group active around the war in Iraq, that’s not listed here? Drop us a line, and tell us about them! )

United For Peace And Justice
( National )



This is the mega org for most anti-war groups. They advocate an immediate withdrawal of the troops from Iraq.

United for Peace and Justice is a coalition of more than 800 local and national groups throughout the United States who have joined together to oppose our government's policy of permanent warfare and empire-building.

We welcome the participation of any and all national, regional and local groups who share our goals and wish to work with others.


Operation Truth
( NY, DC )



A progressive friendly veteran's group. They amplify the voices of the troops.

Operation Truth is a non-profit 501c(4), non-partisan veterans' organization that seeks to amplify the soldiers' voice in the American public dialogue. Paul Rieckhoff, a First Lieutenant in the Army Reserves, founded Operation Truth in June 2004, only months after he returned from a year-long tour in Iraq. As of January 2005, Operation Truth represents well over 300 OEF/OIF veterans, and has over 26,000 supporters.
