The Civilian Public Service: Living Peace in a Time of War
This site tells the story of nearly 12,000 conscientious objectors to war who chose Civilian Public Service in World War II. At the heart of the site rest the names of those men, the communities from which they entered, and the camps in which they served.
The site features a database of names and a listing of the more than 150 camps which you can search to learn more about this effort to protect the rights of conscience during WWII.
The site was launched on May 15, 2011, the 70th anniversary of the opening of the first CPS Camp in 1941.
