Grand Island Site of 2015 Peace Conference

2015-peace-conferenceGRAND ISLAND, Neb. (AP) — A Nebraska peace and social justice advocacy group is holding its annual conference in Grand Island.

The Nebraskans for Peace 2015 Peace Conference will run all day Saturday at Trinity United Methodist Church.

State coordinator Tim Rinne says more than 100 people are registered for the conference.

While it’s too late to register, Rinne says conference is open to the public. They simply need to bring their own lunch.

The conference will feature a panel discussion on justice for Nebraska’s diverse communities. Panel members include Amy Miller, legal director of the American Civil Liberties Union Nebraska; Yolanda Nuncio, immigration specialist with Lutheran Family Services in Grand Island; and Dana Jelinek, executive director of Grand Island Area Habitat for Humanity.
