Center on Conscience & War

The Center on Conscience & War (CCW) is a 501(c)(3) non-profit organization located in Washington, D.C. The Center, formerly the National Interreligious Service Board for Conscientious Objectors (NISBCO), was formed in 1940 "by an association of religious bodies." 

About
"CCW works to defend and extend the rights of conscientious objectors. The Center is committed to supporting all those who question participation in war, whether they are U.S. citizens, permanent residents, documented or undocumented immigrants--or citizens in other countries," its website states. 

"CCW participates in the G.I. Rights Hotline, a national referral and counseling service for military personnel. In the event of a military draft, CCW will assist in the placement of conscientious objectors in alternative service programs. The Center is opposed to all forms of conscription," its website states.
